The Appeals Court in Abuja has ordered the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, to return to the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) to face trial on three of the 18 counts.
The three-man panel on Wednesday led by Justice Tinuade Akomolafe-Wilson unanimously dismissed 15 out of the 18 counts of false assets declaration instituted against Saraki, before the CCT.
The federal government had on June 22, 2017 filed an 11-ground notice of appeal against the June 14, 2017 judgment of the CCT acquitting Saraki of the 18 charges of false asset declaration and other related offences preferred against him in September 2015.
