- The Code of Conduct Tribunal has shifted the commencement of the trial of Senate President Bukola Saraki from March 10 to March 11.
- The Danladi Umar-led CCT had earlier fixed March 10 for the prosecution to open its case on 13 counts of false assets declaration.
- Head of Press and Public Relations of the CCT, Mr. Ibraheem Al-hassan, says the trial had been shifted to March 11 following a request by Saraki’s new lead counsel, Chief Kanu Agabi (SAN).
- According to Al-hassan, Agabi pleaded with the CCT to shift the trial date by one day on the grounds that he had urgent matters to attend to in other courts on March 10.
