PDP: Court Vacates Arrest Order Issued Against Kabiru Turaki

Kabiru Turaki

An Abuja High Court has vacated a bench warrant it issued on March 26 for the arrest of the factional National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Kabiru Turaki. Justice Peter Kekemeke vacated the arrest warrant while ruling on an oral application by Turaki’s lawyer, Chris Uche SAN, following his (Turaki’s) appearance in court.

According to Uche, Turaki’s absence on the last date was not intentional and deliberate, and he never intended to disrespect the court.

Responding to Uche withdrawing the motion on notice filed by his client for a stay of execution of the arrest warrant, the lawyer to the prosecution, Usman Rabiu, said he was not opposed to his colleagues’ applications.

WOW.
