Kaduna businessman drags ex fiancee’s father to court, demands dowry refund A businessman, Nasiru Dayyabu, on Wednesday, dragged the father of his ex-fiance, Mallam Sani Direba, to Shari’a Court II sitting at Magajin Gari, Kaduna over N260,000 dowry. The complainant had joined Direba in the suit against two brothers demanding a refund of N250, 000 dowry and N10,000 introduction money he paid to marry his daughter.

LAGOS COURT REJECTS EMEFIELE'S BID TO REMOVE JUDGE AMID CORRUPTION TRIAL. (PHOTO).


 

The Special Offences Court in Lagos has denied a request by Godwin Emefiele, the former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), to remove Justice Rahman Oshodi from his corruption trial. Emefiele's legal team, led by Olalekan Ojo, SAN, had accused Justice Oshodi of bias and urged him to recuse himself from the case, citing that the judge allowed a leading question from the prosecution despite the defense's objection.¹


However, in his ruling on Wednesday, Justice Oshodi dismissed the request, stating that the allegations of bias were unsubstantiated. The court held that judicial bias alone is insufficient to justify disqualification or recusal, adding that it must be personal or based on judicial reasoning.


The judge subsequently ruled that the application for his recusal lacked merit and promptly rejected it. This decision paves the way for the corruption trial to continue.
