Alex Enumah in AbujaThe trial of the Kogi Central Senator, Natasha Apoti-Uduaghan, on alleged cybercrime charges was for the second time stalled, but this time at a High Court of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
The same scenario that prevented the trial from commencing on Monday before the Federal High Court, Abuja, also played out on Tuesday at the FCT High Court.
Apoti-Uduaghan is standing trial on a three- count charge bordering on making harmful statements against the President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, and former governor of Kogi state, Yahaya Adosa Bello, during a television interview.
Justice Chizoba Orji, who granted the bail to enable the senator defend the allegations, fixed September 23, for commencement of trial.
The judge subsequently fixed October 27 for Apoti-Uduaghan’s motion to be heard along with the response of the AGF.
