Billionaire kidnapper: Evans broke, can’t pay legal fees

Justice Oshodi said Evans had developed a habit of engaging the services of lawyers that “disappeared halfway through trial.”“There are five other defendants with different counsel, the interest of the first defendant is not superior to those of the other defendants”, NAN quoted him as saying.

Defence counsels, Roger Adewole, Olanrewaju Ajanaku, M.C Izokwu and Emmanuel Ochai, informed the court that no prima facie case had been made against the defendants by Lagos State.In his reaction, the A-G said the defendants were “asking the court to do something that cannot be done. They are asking the court to analyse evidence and go beyond the window that no-case submissions requires.”

The defendants are standing trial over the alleged kidnap of Donatius Dunu, the Chief Executive Officer of Maydon Pharmaceutical Ltd.
