The absence of Senator Elisha Abbo, who assaulted a nursing mother, on Thursday stalled continuation of trial in a Zuba Chief Magistrates’ Court in Abuja.

Abbo, who represents Adamawa North in the National Assembly, was arraigned on July 8, 2019, for allegedly assaulting a nursing mother, Mrs. Warmate Osimibibra.

At the resumed hearing, the police counsel, James Idachaba, and Abbo were not in court.

The defense counsel, Mr. Isaac Adeniyi, apologized for the absence of the defendant, saying he had health challenges. Adeniyi said the dates suggested by the prosecution were not convenient to him.  In his ruling, the Presiding Magistrate Abdullahi Illelah adjourned the matter until Feb. 6 for a continuation of trial.

Philip Tumba who is said to be from the legal department of the FCT Police Command told the court that the prosecution counsel was attending a meeting with the Inspector-General of Police. Tumba also said there was a letter of adjournment from the police, which was filed at the court registry on Wednesday but not served on the defense.
