The move by a ranking member of the House of Representatives, Farouk Lawan, and his colleague Boniface Emenalo, to dismiss bribery charges against them has been rejected by the court.
An Abuja High Court presided over by Justice Mudashiru Oniyangi on Friday morning dismissed the application of the accused to quash the charges. The court ruled in favour of the prosecution, the Independent Corrupt Practices and other related offences Commission, ICPC, on the three issues. The court ruled that it has jurisdiction, that there is evidence of crime against the
prosecution, and that the charges are not an abuse of court process.
The counsel to the lawmakers said he would consult with his clients before deciding on appeal.
