The Federal High Court in Lagos has adjourned further proceedings till Tuesday in the case of a former governor of Oyo State, Rashidi Ladoja, who is being prosecuted for an alleged fraud of N4.7bn.
The case, which was slated for continuation of trial on Monday, could not proceed due to the absence of the prosecution witness.
When the case was called up at 1pm on Monday, the prosecutor, Mr. Olabisi Oluwafemi, told the judge that though the matter was slated for continuation of trial, he was unable to bring his next witness to court.
According to him, the next witness, a director in the Oyo State Government Civil Service, was otherwise busy attending to an official assignment.
