The arraignment of Bala Mohammed, the Bauchi State Governor-elect, at the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) High Court on Monday, was stalled due to absence of the judge.

Okay Nigeria had earlier that Bala would be arraigned on fresh six count charges filed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

He is being charged for alleged failure to declare his assets and giving of false information.

However, the trial has been stalled due on Monday due to the absence of Yusuf Halilu, the judge of the case.

The court registrar disclosed that the judge was absent due to an engagement at the election tribunal in Abeokuta, Ogun State.
