A Federal High Court in Lagos yesterday fixed
April 18 for continuation of trial of former NIMASA boss, Patrick Akpobolokemi
and five others, charged with N2.6 billion theft.
Justice Ibrahim Buba, who adjourned the case,
which was earlier fixed for trial to the new date at the instance of the court,
said the court was saddled with much workload and so, fixed continuation of
trial on the next adjourned date.
The accused is facing charges over the diversion of N2.6 billion alongside with Tomopolo, some companies believed to belong to them which was used to effect the transfers and others. Meanwhile, Tompolo is still at large despite the 'wanted' declaration of the Police.
