Federal High Court proceedings stalled Monday when Justice Emeka Nwite discovered improper service of legal documents against African Democratic Congress leadership. Plaintiff counsel Michael Agber failed to serve papers correctly on David Mark, Rauf Aregbesola, and Ralph Nwosu as defendants.

The judge rescheduled hearings for September 30 after granting adjournment requests from plaintiff representation.
