Appeal Court Reserves Judgment On Saraki's Appeal

The Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja, has reserved judgment in an appeal filed by the embattled Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki lodged against his trial before the Code of   Conduct Tribunal (CCT).



Vanguard reports that a five-man panel of justices of the appellate court led by Justice Abdul Aboki, agreed to the judgment on the appeal.

This was after the court heard arguments from Mr. Rotimi Jacobs, counsel to the federal government and Kanu Agabu, lead counsel to Saraki.

Recall that Saraki had gone before the appellate court to query the legal propriety of the 16-count criminal charge the federal government entered against him before the CCT.
