A tribunal on Friday charged Nigeria's suspended chief judge with breaching asset declaration rules but adjourned his trial until after Saturday's presidential elections. The government has come under criticism and accusations of meddling in the judiciary after President Muhammadu Buhari last month suspended Walter Onnoghen. In its ruling, the tribunal adjourned Onnoghen's trial to March 11.
