"We served them on the 25th of February 2023, but they informed me that they would need time to respond," he said.

He further informed the court that both parties had also met and agreed on an adjournment.

The counsel for the first defendant, W.O. Busari, and counsel for the second defendant, E.D. Onyeke, both confirmed the position.

Consequently, Justice Adebiyi adjourned till Friday, March 24, 2023 for the adoption of final written addresses, with respect to the no-case submissions.
