 Court Awaits Appeal Court’s Decision on EFCC’s Witnesses


Justice Hamza  Muazu of the Federal Capital Territory,  FCT,  High Court  Thursday,  November 27, 2025  ruled that  the decision of the Court of Appeal about three witnesses   in the ongoing trial of a former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria,  CBN,  Godwin Emefiele should be awaited before being allowed to testify against the former governor.


Emefiele is facing a 20-count amended charge filed by the Office of the Attorney-General of the Federation (OAGF), including allegations of abuse of office, criminal breach of trust, corruption, and fraud.


At Thursday’s proceedings,  prosecuting counsel, Rotimi Oyedepo (SAN), sought to call three subpoenaed witnesses. However, Justice Muazu ruled that the prosecution should rather await the decision of the appellate court to determine the witness’s eligibility.


The judge noted that their names were part of the additional proof of evidence that his court struck out on March 20, a ruling which the prosecution has since appealed at the Court of Appeal.


 According to the judge, “the ruling of March 20 is now the subject of an appeal. This court cannot change its own decision by allowing these subpoenaed witnesses to testify. The prosecution must wait for the decision of the Court of Appeal,”  


The case was adjourned to January 29, 2026, for continuation of the hearing.
