But Peter’s lawyer, Victor Abakpa Esq, announced to Justice N.K. Nwosu-Iheme that his principal had transferred the matter to another counsel, I.A. Aliyu.

He therefore urged the court to shift it to another day so that he and the new counsel could sort out the issue.

He explained that he was just served with additional proof of evidence by the prosecution, the Office of the Attorney-General of the Federation.

But the judge rather stood down the matter till 11am.
