| Femi Fani-Kayode |
THE arraignment of former
spokesperson of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential campaign, Chief
Femi Fani-Kayode, at the Federal High Court, Ikoyi, Lagos was stalled on
Tuesday as Justice M. S. Hassan, who was to preside over his case, was absent
due to a workshop this week that coincided with the trial.
Others affected also by the
same reason was the arraignment of Mrs. Nenadi Usman, a former Minister of
Finance and Director of Finance, PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation in the
last general elections, as well Danjuma Yusuf and one artificial person; Jointrust
Dimensions Nigeria Limited...
The accused persons were
scheduled to be arraigned on a 17-count charge bordering on conspiracy,
stealing for personal use, corruption and making cash payments exceeding the statutory
provisions.
Following this development,
they were moved back to EFCC custody after waiting in futility, nevertheless, the
court registrar stated that a new date would be communicated to parties’
counsels in due course.
