Supreme Court Halts Saraki’s Trial At CCT

    The Supreme Court today suspended proceedings at the Code of Conduct
    Tribunal (CCT) pending the conclusion of an appeal filed by the Senate
    President, Dr. Bukola Saraki at the Apex Court.
    The Senate President had appealed to the Supreme Court against the
    October 30 judgment of the Court of Appeal, which affirmed the competence of
    the charges instituted against him and the jurisdiction of the CCT to try him.
    It will be recalled that his lawyers who appeared for him at the tribunal
    on November 5, stormed out of the courtroom in protest against a ruling of the
    CCT led by Justice Danladi Umar, rejecting their request to adjourn the trial
    indefinitely because of the pending appeal before the Supreme Court.
