The Code of Conduct Tribunal has adjourned to Thursday for judgment in the trial of former chiefjustice of Nigeria, Walter Onnoghen for his trial over non-declaration of assets.
The former CJN returned to the tribunal this morning where counsels in the matter are adopted their written addresses.
Chris Uche, a senior advocate of Nigeria and representing the former CJN, told the tribunal that exhibit a written statement from justice Onnoghen admitting to have forgotten to update his assets declaration form is not confessional.
