Delivering her judgement, the presiding judge, Justice Rita Ofili Ajumogobia, said that EFCC had not provided any evidence that proved that the former minister had in anyway laundered money through fictitious business transactions. According to her, the prosecution had failed woefully in proving that he was guilt in all the 38 count charge brought against him.
She went
further to say that all the witnesses provided by the prosecution since
the trial started had not provided any evidence to prove that the former
Minister had any business dealings with them.
Consequently she
discharged and acquitted him of 38 count charges but however instructed
him to enter a defence against the two other charges counts. The case was adjourned till December 8th.
