CHANNELS TV

The trial of former Minister of Interior, Abba Moro has suffered a setback as the judge handling the case has taken his hands off the matter.
At the resumed trial in Abuja, Justice Anwuli Chikere, who has been handling the case said she is returning the case file of Mr Moro to the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court for reassignment on personal reasons.
The former Minister of Interior is standing trial for allegedly defrauding immigration applicants of over N670 million.
In a related development, the trial of the National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Mr Olisa Metuh, was also stalled following his application to seek medical treatment.

Trial Judge, Okon Abang adjourned the corruption case against Mr Metuh to May 17 and 18 due to an oral application made by his counsel to the effect that his client came from a hospital bed to honour the court date.
