The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission
(EFCC) has re-arraigned a former governor of Abia
State, Orji Kalu and two others on a 34-count
amended charge bordering on fraud.
Kalu, his company, Slok Nigeria Limited and his
former Commissioner for Finance, Jones Udeogo,
were re-arraigned before Justice Anwuri Chikere of
the Federal High Court, Abuja on Tuesday.
The defendants’ plea that the court should await
the pending appeal by Slok before the Supreme
Court failed.
Chikere had refused the defendants’ objection to
their arraignment and ordered that the charge be
read to them.
Kalu and others were, in the amended charge,
accused of diverting about N3.2 billion from the
Abia government’s treasury during Kalu’s tenure
as governor.
They all pleaded not guilty to the charges and
Chikere allowed them on bail on the terms
attached to the bail granted them on April 30,
2008.
They had, eight years earlier been arraigned be­
fore Justice Adamu Bello, who is now retired.
The court adjourned the case till Dec. 6 for
commencement of trial.

Wailer: But Recession is killing Nigerians.
Zombie: shut up, you will gain from this anti-corruption fight in the end. Don't you know that Baba needs to gather all the money from looters to use in fixing the economy
Wailer: Okay you are right, but em, how come the Finance minister does not know what the recovered N2.2trn was used for
Zombie: em, em.......that is corruption fighting back.


USELESS GOVERNMENT.

Useless Govt. Useless EFCC. Why fighting one side? What about Tunumbu? What about d APC thieves. This is not funny. EFCC leave kalu alone and fight T.A orji. He's a big thief.

so since past eight years he have not been convicted. so you people think you can play us.

Am surprised that THEODORE OJI is working freely. Still surprised how some many Abians usually jump out to defend the rogue whenever his name is mentioned. Just because he have the vehicles with global licences and can be taken away if any one opposes him.

EFCC toothless dog.
