The FCT High Court in Life Camp, Abuja, on Thursday adjourned the trial of a Nigerian rapper, Tochukwu Ojogwu, popularly known as “Odumodublvck”, in a case of assault and battery until June 23, 2026.
At the resumed hearing, the claimant’s counsel, Uchenna Ojembe, announced his appearance and told the court that the matter was for hearing.
Ojembe informed the court that the claimant, Ogbogiri Okey Levi, popularly known as “Kraziecent”, who is the sole witness in the matter, was in court and that he was ready to proceed.
He went further to inform the court that the defendant’s counsel, Taiwo Akinsulie, however, served him with a letter seeking adjournment, because he has travelled out of the court’s jurisdiction and may not return to the country until May 31.
Akinsuile had requested that the matter be graciously adjourned until June 3 or any other date in June to enable him to attend the court session.
Ojembe did not oppose the application for adjournment but prayed the court to grant the defendant application on strict terms.
The claimant counsel also drew the courts attention to the fact that the letter of adjournment was not from the substantive defense counsel on record but his partner in his law firm.
He explained to the court that this will be the fifth time that this matter will be adjourned and two times has been at the instance of the defendants.
Ojembe told the court that the other two adjournments were due to the renovation of the court and the last one was due to the bereavement of the court on the 26th November 2025..
Justice Adeyemi Ajayi, in her ruling said that she had taken judicial notice of the claimant’s counsel submissions.
“By next adjourned date, if the defendant fails to appear before the court, it may attract necessary orders,” she held.
