Ahmed Mohammed, a justice of the federal high court, Abuja on Monday refused to grant the request of Senate President Bukola Saraki to stop his trial.

‎He adjourned to September 30 for hearing of the suit filed by Saraki.

Last Thursday, the senate president app‎roached the court with an exparte application seeking an injunction to stop the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) from putting him on trial.

Saraki is facing a 13-count charge of corruption and false declaration of assets brought against him by the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB).

Mohammed had ruled that the opposite parties to the case- the chairman of CCT, CCB and the ministry of justice- come before him on Monday‎ to show cause why the trial of Saraki should not be stopped.

A copy of the ruling seen by TheCable last Thursday read: ‎”An order is hereby made directing the respondents to appear before this court on Monday, September 21, 2015 and show cause why the interim orders of injunction being sought by the plaintiff/applicant should not be made by the court.”

“All the respondents should be served with the originating summons filed in this suit, it’s accompanying affidavit, the motion on notice for interlocutory orders of injunction, the motion exparte for interim orders of injunction, the affidavit of urgency all the exhibits attached to the various affidavits filed.

“Hearing notices shall also be issued on all the respondent‎.

“The return date for the respondents to appear and show cause shall be the 21st of September.

“These orders are made pursuant to the provisions of order 26 rules 10 and 13 of the federal high court (Civil procedure) rules, 2009.”

Presenting his brief‎, AO Adelodun, Saraki’s lawyer, told the court that the defendants flouted the order of the court asking all the parties to maintain the status quo until the determination of the application on Monday.

He therefore ‎urged the court to set aside Friday’s ruling of the CCT ordering the arrest of Saraki.

Taiwo Abidogun, counsel of the defendants, ‎argued that the court had no jurisdiction to entertain the matter, asking it to strike out Saraki’s application.

‎But Mohammed declined granting any of the prayers. Instead, he asked that both parties present their cases‎ on September 30.

The Court of Appeal has dismissed the ex-parte application by Senate President, Bukola Saraki, seeking to set aside the order made on Friday by the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) issuing bench warrant for Saraki’s arrest.

It said it cannot interfere with the proceedings pending at the lower court.
It will be in the interest of notice for the respondents to be put on notice.

Consequently the ex-parte application refused and the motion on notice set down for hearing on September 29
Justice Armed Mohammed of the Federal High Court, in another ruling just delivered, refused a similar application by Saraki.

He adjourned to September 30 for the hearing of the substantive suit by Saraki, challenging the competence of charge before the CCT and the preliminary objection filed by the CCT, Code of Conduct Tribunal and Federal Ministry of Justice.

Justice Mohammed held that, in view of the constitutional and radical nature of the issues raised in the respondents’ objection, it was reasonable for the court not to waste time on interlocutory applications.

Thought the cable is to pdp what Sahara is to apc? You sure say this case no go die before 30th?

operation making saraki more popular. Apc fighting apc, God punish thieves.

OP sorry nothing will happen to saraki

Court orders are not given in vacuo. the court must do justice to plaintiff, defendants and the society at large. The refusal of the court simply indicate a balance of justice.

Be you ever so high, the law is above you. there is no shame in standing trial to clear your name even before your perceived enemies and also shame your adversaries. Dr Saraki shld just do the needful!

Saraki is a Gunner

Pa chukwudi,,wia are you o,,come and defend your yoruba master called abubakar bukola saraki

Justice Mohammed held that, in view of the constitutional and radical nature of the issues raised in the respondents’ objection, it was reasonable for the court not to waste time on interlocutory applications.

I guess some judges are beginning to catch the anti-corruption bug. The judiciary must not allow itself to be used by politicians to insult our collective sensibilities through frivolous petitions. Saraki must submit himself to the CCT to answer to the charges.

All Patriotic Nigerians must rise up and support the anti-corruption fight. Witch-hunting is not against any law in the country as long as the Witch being Hunted is truly guilty of Blood Sucking.

It is absolutely imperative for the CCB to pursue this case to a definitive conclusion as this will serve as a marker that the anti-corruption fight is for real. The era of Impunity and Sacred Cows should be gone for good.

Saraki don enter one chance no escape route, abeg make una tell pa chukudi to learn abt politics very well, its not about online ranting besides u no fit fight FG & win in FG's court.

This na one of dem days I bin wish Pmb still dey inside khaki!!

E for don red for that bank/state robber!!!

operation making saraki more popular.
Apc fighting apc, God punish thieves.

Popular to fellow corrupt minded people. Lawrence Anini, Monday Osunmbor and Oyelusi were all once popular too.

na wa oooooo

Enough of these court cases and counter injunctions. They're a mockery of judicial process. The news Nigerians are expecting is that Saraki has been arrested.

kill him, jail him , do whatever u wish with him.
How does it concern me an Igbo man?
Afterall he was the brain behind the betrayal of GEJ by pulling out of PDP with other governors.
This might be nemesis.

the judge refused both parties and asked for all parties to appear before his lordship on the 30th!
and the cct will be served thus ruling!

Hmnnn,this will be the fight of the century, light against darkness, rule of law against corruption. Buhari vs Saraki

My odds is on Buhari
Half time draw, full time win in favor of Buhari
Both teams to scorescore

sorry

OK na

Ok

Wrd

the way I am seen issues
this man may regret ever nursing the ambition of becoming a Senate president

This Saraki's episode is becoming boring jor.

D breeze has blown nd d hens ass is oit
