The anti-graft agency, EFCC, on Monday, explained why it is yet to re-arraign a former Abia State governor, Uzor Kalu, for theft of public funds and money laundering, five months after a Supreme Court order.
The EFCC had in 2018 re-arraigned the two-term governor alongside Ude Udeogu, a former director of finance and account in Abia, and his company, Slok Nigeria Limited, on a 39-count charge before the Federal High Court in Lagos. But, on May 8 this year, the Supreme Court, in a unanimous decision by a seven-member panel led by Justice Amina Augie, held that Mr Idris should not have continued to hear the case having been elevated to the appeal court.However, the apex court verdict did not include releasing Mr Kalu from prison. His counsel, therefore, filed a suit before the Lagos federal high court for Mr Kalu’s release.
Some people are under the law while some are above the law in Nigeria fight against corruption in this country is very selective Orji kalu has been discharged & acquitted despite all the evidence of corruption levelled against him The criminal is enjoying in the Senate
On which account again
