 N110.4bn Fraud: Court orders Yahaya Bello to appear for Arraignment

 

Justice Maryanne Anenih of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT in Maitama, Abuja on October 3, 2024  has issued a public summon against former Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Adoza Bello following his absence in a fresh arraignment on 16-count charges preferred against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.

 

Bello, Shuabu Oricha and Abdulsalami Hudu are facing prosecution  bordering on criminal breach of trust, conspiracy to commit an offence to the tune of N110.4 Billion.


Justice Anenih issued the summon in a ruling following an ex parte application by EFCC counsel, Rotimi Oyedepo, SAN praying the court to grant leave that the defendant be served the charges via substituted means, following his absence in court  to answer charges filed against him on September 24, 2024.

 

The court ordered that the charges be served on the defendant at his known residence, No 4, Bengazi Street, Maitama, Abuja, through a public summons to be published in widely circulated national  newspapers and also pasted within the premises of the court.

 

The judge granted two separate adjournments: 0ctober 24, 2024  and November 14,  2024. The former for arraignment on the grounds that the defendant will be arrested and brought to court by EFCC  and the latter  when the 30 days of service elapses.

 

Bello is also being awaited for arraignment before Justice Emeka Nwite of the Federal High Court, Abuja  on an 18-count charge bordering on money laundering to the tune of N80.2billion.
