Lagos High Court sitting in Ikeja has granted leave to a Federal High Court judge, Justice Rita Ofili-Ajumogobia and Chief Godwin Obla (SAN) to travel abroad for medical treatment.
Both Justice Ajumogobia and Chief Obla are facing corruption charges brought against them by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) before Justice Hakeem Oshodi.
Ajumogobia is travelling to New York. Obla, on the other hand, is going to Houston, Texas.
Ajumogobia had through her counsel, Olawale Akoni (SAN) sought the leave of the court to travel for urgent medical attention in Morris Height Centre, Bronx, New York.
However, EFCC counsel Rotimi Oyedepo opposed the application.
But Justice Oshodi ordered the Chief Registrar to release the international passports of Ajumogobia and Obla to enable them travel for treatment.
