Appeal Court rejects Saraki's appeal to stop his arrest

Adumein consequently rejected the application. He said  it would be better to serve the interest of justice by putting the respondents on notice.

Bukola Saraki

Senate President, Bukola Saraki's appeal to set aside the order for his arrest issued by the Code Of Conduct Tribunal has been struck out by the Court of Appeal in Abuja.

After hearing arguments by Senator Saraki’s counsel, Mr Adebayo Adelodun (SAN), Justice Morrie Adumein  ruled that the court does not interfere in the ‎proceeding of a lower court when the other parties have not been heard.

The motion on notice has been adjourned to Tuesday, September 29, 2015 for proof of service and hearing.

However, Saraki has announced his resolve to appear before the tribunal tomorrow, September 21.
