Latest information from the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) indicates that the trial of suspended Chief Justice of Nigeria, Walter Onnoghen on the non-assets declaration charge by the Federal Government has been adjourned indefinitely.
The Mr. Danladi Umar-led tribunal said its decision to suspend Justice Onnoghen’s trial was based on the order of the Court of Appeal in Abuja.
“In view of the Court of Appeal order for stay of proceedings and out of respect for the Court of Appeal, the tribunal hereby adjourn this matter sine-die (indefinitely) pending the determination of the Appeal before the Court of Appeal”, Mr. Umar ruled.
On the other hand, the Acting CJN, Muhammad took full charge and presided over about 10 cases that came up for hearing before the Supreme Court on Monday.
