Justice Maikaita Bako of the Katsina State High Court on February 13, 2018 adjourned the corruption trial of Ibrahim Shema, former Katsina State governor alongside three others to April 10, 11 and 12, 2018. At the resumed hearing, prosecuting counsel, Sam Ologunorisa, SAN, informed the court that the EFCC secured victory over Shema at the Supreme Court, which dismissed the application made by his counsel, J.
