The presiding judge, Justice Olusegun Odusola on Monday announced the adjournment after a representative of the Prosecution Counsel, Mr Babatunde Falodun, informed the court of the inability of the state’s Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Adekola Olawoye, SAN, to be present due to an urgent state assignment.
Falodun also applied for an adjournment of the hearing and the application was not opposed by the Defence Counsels, Olusola Oke, Olumide Ogidan, Akinyemi Omoware and Olalekan Akinrinsola.
