NBA President withdraws from Mohammed’s case

By Emeka Mamah

KADUNA—The President-elect of the Nigerian Bar Association, Mr. Joseph Daudu (SAN), has withdrawn his legal representation of the former Managing Director of the Post Service Homes (Savings and Loans) Limited (PSHL), Brig.-General Felix Mohammed, standing trial before the Army General Court Martial (GCM) currently sitting in Kaduna.

Daudu announced his withdrawal following last Tuesday’s dismissal of the application for the variation of the bail conditions which the GCM imposed on Mohammed earlier.

Part of the condition for his bail was for the accused person to produce two ex-service chiefs who must have landed property in both Abuja and Kaduna. It has become impossible for him, prompting his defence counsel to apply for a variation.
