The Federal High Court in Abuja has dismissed the 18 counts bothering on gratification and illegal possession of firearms brought against Justice Adeniyi Ademola, his wife, Olabowale, and Joe Agi (SAN) by the Federal Government.
The trial judge, Justice Jude Okeke, in his ruling on the no-case submission filed by the three defendants held that the prosecution has failed to establish any prima facie case against the defendants and therefore ”no justifiable reason to call on the defendants to enter their defence.”
“The matter is therefore resolved in favour of the defendants and all the defendants are hereby discharged,”Justice Okeke ruled.
