An Abuja Division of the Federal High Court has refused an application by a former spokesperson of the PDP, Olisa Metuh, for the suspension of his trial.
Metuh is facing trial on a seven-count charge of fraud brought against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
He is accused of receiving N400 million illegally from the office of the former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki, but has denied any wrongdoing.
Metuh is asking the apex court to set aside an earlier decision of the high court which ordered the defendant to open his defence.
