Court grants ex-Taraba governor permission for medical trip abroad
An Abuja High Court on Tuesday granted permission to the former governor of Taraba, Darius Ishaku, to travel to Arjam, UAE for a spinal cord surgery.
Justice Sylvanus Oriji granted the leave to enable Ishaku undergo surgery as recommended by his surgeon.
He added that the leave expires by October 5.
The Economic and Financial Crime Commission arraigned Ishaku on a 15-count charge for allegedly diverting N27 billion.
He was arraigned on September 30, 2024, alongside former Permanent Secretary Bello Yero.
Earlier, Ishakuβs counsel, Chris Umar, SAN, sought an order of the court granting leave to the former governor to travel to the UAE for a spine surgery.
The EFCC Counsel, Rotimi Jacobs , SAN, and counsel for the second defendant, Hussaini Zakariyya ,SAN, did not object to the application.
