Court Adjourns Naira Marley's Internet Fraud Trial Till October 5 | Sahara Reporters

Justice I. Nicholas Oweibo of the Federal High Court sitting in Ikoyi, Lagos, on Monday, adjourned till October 5, 2021, for the continuation of trial in the case of Afeez Adeshina Fashola, popularly known as Naira Marley, who was arraigned sometime in 2019 on an 11-count charge of credit card fraud preferred against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.

At the resumed sitting on Monday, the prosecution counsel, Bilkisu Buhari, informed the court that the matter was slated for cross-examination of the second prosecution witness, PW2, Anosike, and urged the court to call on the witness for the continuation of the hearing. However, counsel to the defendants, Akinwale Kola-Taiwo, asked the court for a short date because"the matter is for mention today and not continuation as disclosed by the prosecution."

Consequently, Justice Oweibo granted the prayer of the defense and adjourned the matter till October 5, 6, and 7 for the continuation of trial, DailyNigerian reports.

I got a memo that court is going for an annual vacation from that will end on September 3rd. Their indirectly saying that MNK's own case has been adjourned as well
