Just in: Court orders arrest of CCB chairman over El Rufai’s assets declaration
Author: Aanu Adegun
A
Kaduna state high court on Friday, February 8, issued a warrant of
arrest against the chairman of Code of Conduct Bureau, CCB, for
contempt.
The warrant of arrest was issued by Justice Mario Mohammed
after the chairman had ignored several summons by the court in a suit
between Kaduna state governor, Nasir El-Rufa’i and Today’s publishing
Company Limited, and one other.
A warrant form obtained directed
that police personnel and authorities should arrest the CCB chairman and
produce him before the court on February 13.
Earlier, Today
Publishing company, the publisher of The Union Newspapers had filed
application requesting the court to subpoena CCB chairman to produce
assets declaration of El-Rufai in court after several failed efforts it
made to obtain it from the CCB.
Justice Mohammed granted the approval
based on the application filed by Counsel to The Union Newspapers, Mr
J.N. Egwuonwu (SAN), during the continuation of defence at previous
sitting.
Egwuonwu represented by Hiifan Andrew Abuul had written
application to the court to Subpoena CCB to tender the asset declaration
of the Governor before the court.
News Agency of Nigeria(NAN),
reports that the governor had gone to the court over a report carried by
the newspaper in which it allegedly stated that he had declared N90
billion in his CCB assets declaration form.
