The presiding Judge, Christy Dabup gave the order at the resumed hearing of the case on Thursday.
Justice Dabup’s order for a trial-within-trial was the third since the case brought before the court by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
Jang, who served as governor of the state between 2007 and 2015, is standing trial alongside a former cashier in the Office of the Secretary to the State Government over an alleged misappropriation of public fund amounting to over N6.3bn
