A Lagos High Court in Igbosere on Friday gave a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), Mr Rickey Tarfa, 90 more days to recuperate from surgery.

At the resumption of proceedings yesterday, Tarfa, who was represented by Mr John Odubela SAN, said the defendant had carried out the judge’s instructions.

He prayed the court to discountenance the opposition of Economic and Financial Crimes Commission counsel, Mr U. U. Buhari and rather, grant Tarfa’s prayers. “The defendant is entitled to adequate time to prepare his defence, which, of course, must be balanced with the prosecution’s right to reasonable time conclude his case.”
