Bukola Saraki’s Trial Adjourned Indefinitely By Code Of Conduct Tribunal

The trial of the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, has been adjourned indefinitely by the Code of Conduct Tribunal following the absence of a star witness for the prosecution, Michael Wetkas.

Saraki’s trial had earlier been adjourned to today after a sitting by the court on May 25, so the cross-examination of the witness, Michael Wetkas, could continue.

The tribunal chairman, Danladi Umar, said the adjournment was to give the court time to hear other cases.

The prosecution and defence teams also said the break would allow them prepare their cases better.

A court official, who asked not to be named, revealed that Mr. Wetkas was attending another trial at the Federal High Court, Abuja.
