The trial of a former member of the House of Representatives, Mr. Farouk Lawan, pending before the FCT High Court was stalled on Tuesday due to the ill health of the prosecution witness, Mr. Femi Otedola.
On resumption of the case on Tuesday, the prosecution counsel, Chief Adegboyega Awomolo , informed the court that Otedola, who was giving evidence for the prosecution, was not in court because he was sick. As a result of the development, Justice Angela Otaluka adjourned the case till June 10 and June 11 for continuation of the hearing.
According to him, the $500,000 he gave the defendant as part payment from the $3 million demanded was given to him by the Department of State Service .
