Justice Inyang Ekwo of the Federal High Court, Abuja, will on February 28 hear the bail application filed by detained Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari.
Ekwo fixed the date on Thursday, after counsel to the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Mike Kassa, informed the court that the bail application was not served on him.
Kassa said though the applicant’s counsel served him with a motion on notice, he was yet to be served with the bail application.
However, Kyari’s counsel, Cynthia Ikenna insisted before the court that there is proof of service to that effect.
Ikena prayed to the court to confirm the proof of service in the court file.
After going through the court file, Justice Ekwo directed the applicant’s lawyer, Ikenna to serve Kassa in open court.
