Lagos businessman and alleged fraudster, Fred Ajudua, has again approached the Special Offences Division of the State High Court in Ikeja to request for bail.
Ajudua who came to court on Friday in a white native attire and holding a walking stick told the court through his counsel, Olalekan Ojo (SAN), that he had filed a notice of withdrawal of his application seeking certain reliefs at the Supreme Court to pave way for the high court to rule on the bail application.
“We decided to withdraw the motion we filed at the Supreme Court to allow this Honourable Court to deliver its ruling on the bail application,” Ojo said.
The defense counsel also submitted an affidavit and a copy of the notice of withdrawal to the court.
Ojo noted that although his client is battling chronic kidney disease and severe hypertension, he insisted on appearing in court to comply with his legal undertakings. He urged the court to proceed with its ruling on the bail application,
