FG appeals ruling on Justice Ademola
The Federal Government has appealed against the decision of Justice Jude Okeke upholding the no case submission in the corruption case against Justice Adeniyi Ademola, Mrs Olabowale Ademola and Mr Joe Agi (SAN).
A source in the Presidency made this known to State House correspondents in Abuja yesterday.
The source stated the appeal was informed by the need to save the war against corruption.
The source said the Ministry of Justice had also filed a fresh case in the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT) against Justice Ademola and wife “for living above their means and failure to declare their assets.’’
The source said the government had been advised to appeal against what is described as “a very strange outcome indeed considering the underlying facts.” (NAN)
