ALLEGED WIRETAPPING: COURT REJECTS EL-RUFAI’S NO-CASE SUBMISSION, ORDERS HIM TO ENTER DEFENCE A Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, to enter his defence, if he so desires, in his ongoing trial over the alleged unlawful interception of the telephone communications of the National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu. Justice Joyce Abdulmalik gave the order on Monday while ruling on El-Rufai’s no-case submission. The judge dismissed the application, holding that the prosecution had presented sufficient evidence to warrant calling on the defendant to enter his defence. The court adjourned the case until November 25 for the defence.

 One dead, 10 injured in Atlanta mass shooting

Police are investigating a mass shooting in Atlanta that left one man dead and 10 others injured on Monday.

Atlanta Mayor Andre Dickens and Police Chief Darin Schierbaum said during a press conference that around 1:27 a.m. EDT, three men and one woman opened fire on a crowd in the 300 block of Edgewood Avenue in the city’s Sweet Auburn neighborhood. A 27-year-old man, Santos J. Wyatt, was killed, and an 18-year-old male remains in critical condition. Most of the victims, ranging from 18 to 29 years old, are believed to have been caught in the crossfire rather than targeted directly. The suspects are still at large.

Authorities also confirmed that another person was fatally shot in the city over the weekend. In total, 29 people were shot across Atlanta in 12 separate incidents of gun violence. Additionally, police said one person was wounded in a separate shooting earlier the same evening during a dispute in a nearby parking lot.
