Alleged certificate forgery: Court adjourns APC’s suit against Obaseki until Dec 30

Ondo court terminates contempt suit against Speaker, three others

The Federal High Court Abuja has adjourned the alleged certificate forgery case of the All Progressives Congress (APC) against Gov. Godwin Obaseki of Edo until Dec. 30.

At the resumed hearing on Tuesday, the APC through its counsel, Mr. Akin Olujimi, SAN, attempted to tender some documents in evidence through a subpoenaed witness.
The PDP and Obaseki, however, objected to the tendering of the documents on the grounds that the process did conform with the laws guiding the admissibility of documents.

Obseki’s counsel, Mr. Ken Mozia, SAN, added that there was no evidence of payment for the documents.
