 COURT REJECTS SOWORE'S BID FOR LONG ADJOUNMENT


Justice Mohammed Garba Umar of the Federal High Court in Abuja has turned down the application by the Presidential candidate of the African Alliance Congress AAC, Omoyele Sowore seeking a long adjournment of his trial in the defamation of President Bola Tinubu charges filed against him by the Department of the State Service DSS. 


Sowore through his lawyer, Reuben Adakole had on Monday applied that his defense in the charge be shifted till after the two months annual vacation of the Court. 


The activist who is put on trial for allegedly calling President Tinubu a criminal on his Facebook page and X handle predicates his long adjournment on the ground that his choice lawyer, Olumide Fusika SAN was out of the country to attend to family matters. 


His request was however opposed by counsel to the DSS Mr Akinlolu Kehinde SAN who drew the attention of the Court to ten previous adjournments the trial suffered at the instance of Sowore. 


The senior lawyer told Justice Umar that the latest request for long adjournment was a ploy and antics to further frustrate the criminal trial. 


In a brief ruling, Justice Umar turned down the long adjournment application based on the previous order of the Court. 


The Judge subsequently ordered Sowore to be in Court on July 16 for continuation of his defense in the charge. 


Earlier Sowore's first witness and Abuja based lawyer, Mr Deji Adeyanju had in continuation of his evidence insisted that President Tinubu during an official engagement in Benue state had said citizens have the right to insult, abuse, criticise and call him names and that law enforcement agencies should allow citizens exercise their rights as  part of democracy. 


The video clips of where the President was said to have made the remarks were played in the open Court.


Under cross examination by DSS lawyer, Adeyanju admitted being a lawyer to Sowore but that he opted out later.


He however admitted that President Tinubu never spoke against the law taking its course when laws are broken by any individual. 


‎The court therefore adjourned the matter till July 16 for continuation of defense by Sowore.
