The ruling came weeks after a Magistrate Court sitting in Zuba, in the FCT acquitted Senator Abbo representing Adamawa-North in the Senate in a case of assault instituted against him by the Nigeria police.
Magistrate Abdullahi Ilelah, who upheld a no-case submission filed by Abbo, said the police failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the lawmaker assaulted Warmate.
