The Federal Government has added some prosecution witnesses against a judge of the Federal High Court, Justice Adeniyi Ademola, and his wife, Olubolade, following Wednesday’s amendment of the gratification charges preferred against them last December.
With Wednesday’s amendment, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Mr. Joe Agi, whom the prosecution accused of giving N30m and a BMW car worth N8.5m to Justice Ademola as gratification, has been joined as a defendant.
It also increased the number of counts from nine to 16.
The three defendants pleaded not guilty to all the 16 counts when read to them before Justice Jude Okeke of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory in Maitama, Abuja, on Wednesday.
