Justice Abdulmalik Orders El-Rufai to Enter Defence in Wiretapping Trial

Justice Joyce Abdulmalik of the Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered a former Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai, to enter his defence in a case involving allegations of phone-tapping, according to multiple reports. The trial stems from accusations made against El-Rufai during his tenure as governor. According to THISDAYLIVE, Justice Abdulmalik made the order on Monday, but the specific dates for the defence have yet to be announced. The case is significant as it raises questions about the privacy rights of citizens and the potential abuse of power by public officials. As the trial progresses, more details are expected to emerge, shedding light on the extent of the alleged wiretapping and the evidence being presented by both parties.
