Money Laundering: Court adjourns Ex-ministers’ trial till December
A federal high court in Lagos has adjourned the money laundering trial of a former minister of state for finance, Nenadi Usman, till December the 2nd.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) had arraigned Usman, former aviation minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, a former chairman of the Association of Local Government of Nigeria (ALGON), Yusuf Danjuma and a company, Join Trust Dimension Limited on a 17-count of money laundering to the tune of N4.6billion.
The accused persons had pleaded not guilty to the charges and were granted bail by the court.
However, EFCC has since opened the case for prosecution with emerging evidences.
