Court Schedules Aug 15 to Hear Emefiele, FG Application
The Federal High Court in Lagos has fixed August 15th for hearing the application of the suspended Central Bank of Nigeria Governor, Godwin Emefiele, praying the Federal Government through the Department of State Service stops his trial. More so, the Court will also entertain the application tendered by the Nigeria secret police seeking to appeal the N20m bail granted to Emefiele by the court. The judge, Justice Nicholas Oweibo fixed the date to enable the defence to reply to the prosecution’s further counter affidavit, which was served on the defence in court just before proceedings began.
