SDP Trial Court Adjourns Shehu Musa Gabam’s Case As Prosecution Awaits Banking Records

SDP Trial Court Adjourns Shehu Musa Gabam’s Case as Prosecution Awaits Banking Records The criminal trial of former National Chairman of the Social Democratic Party SDP, Shehu Musa Gabam, has been adjourned to August 17, 2026, after the court was unable to sit as scheduled. The adjournment delayed the prosecution’s planned presentation of what it described as crucial banking records expected to form part of its evidence in the case. According to reports, the prosecution had indicated its readiness to tender the financial documents during the proceedings, but the inability of the court to conduct the sitting prevented the planned presentation.

The case, which involves allegations being contested in court, will now resume on the new date when the prosecution is expected to continue with its evidence. Gabam, a prominent Nigerian politician and former chairman of the SDP, remains subject to the ongoing judicial process, with the court set to determine the issues based on the evidence presented by both the prosecution and defence.

The adjournment is the latest development in the legal proceedings, as parties await the next hearing date.
