The Supreme Court has
ordered the suspension of the
trial of the Senate president,
Bukola Saraki, at the Code of
Conduct Tribunal.
Mr. Saraki is facing a 13-count
corruption charge at the
tribunal. He denies the
allegation of false asset
declaration and graft.
Two High Courts and a Court
of Appeal had earlier rejected
his request to quash the
charges.
Before doing doing so, the
court of appeal halted the case
briefly to allow it take a
decision.
On Thursday, the Supreme
Court also said the corruption
case against Mr. Saraki
“should tarry a while”
pending the conclusion of an
appeal he brought before it.
The Supreme Court assured it
would consider the matter
speedily.
