A former governor of Plateau State, Jonah Jang, today lost his bid to stop his corruption trial as Justice Daniel Longji, of Plateau State High Court, Jos ruled that the ex- governor (now a senator) and a cashier in the Office of the Secretary to the State Government, OSSG, Yusuf Pam have a case to answer in the corruption charges brought against them by the EFCC, to the tune of N6.32billion.
The court had on November 18, 2019 given the defence, 14 days to file its no case submission on the matter, and for the prosecution to respond within 10 days of service.
Ruling on the no case submission was however deferred on December 23, 2019 due to a late service of the notice by the defence on the prosecution.
