The defendant pleaded not guilty to the charge.
In light of his plea, counsel to the EFCC, Samuel Ugwuegbulam, asked for a date to commence trial and asked that the defendant be remanded in prison custody.
Ugwuegbulam informed the court of the defendant's antecedent saying, “the defendant has criminal tendencies”. The counsel added that Idowu had once been granted administrative bail by the EFCC, but jumped bail.On the other hand, Sunny Tabi, representing the defendant pleaded with the court to grant his client bail as he had never been found guilty of any offence.
Justice Goodluck ordered the remand of the defendant in the EFCC custody and adjourned to November 7 and 14, 2018 for commencement of trial.
Idowu, in another case was arrested for impersonating the Acting Chairman of the EFCC, Ibrahim Magu. While posing as operative of EFCC, Idowu forged the signature of the Chairman and requested for money to get rid of a petition purportedly written against the complainant.
