A Federal High Court sitting in Lagos on Tuesday Feb 20th, has held that there is no valid charge before it in relation to the case of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) against a former governor of Enugu State, Mr Chimaroke Nnamani.
The former governor was to be re-arraigned before the court on allegations of laundering N4.5 billion, an offence said to have been committed during his tenure as Governor of Enugu State between 1999 and 2007.
The move to re-arraign the former Governor is coming 10 years after he was first arraigned alongside one of his aides, Sunday Anyaogu and 6 companies. But the former governor had challenged the re-arraignment on the ground that the court lacked the competence to try him and determine the offences against him, especially as a plea bargain agreement had been reached between him, the other defendants and the EFCC.
In a short ruling, Justice Chuka Obiozor held that in view of the plea bargain judgement of this court delivered on the 7th of July, 2015, there is no valid charge before his court. He therefore expunged the entire proceedings.

ReplyDeleteApc worst thing that happened to this country. Once you decamp to Apc all your corruption charges will be dropped and you are free as air. Examples Orji Uzor Kalu, Obanikoro, former Nassarawa governor, and lots more. I weep for my country
ReplyDeleteNot surprise though, if Orji Uzor would be exonerated then why not Chimaroke? Our judiciary is in a big mess.
ReplyDeleteChimaroke Nnamani stole Enugu state money through his various companies..ex rainbownet, marlum construction, etc he used the defunct Equity Bank and intercontinental bank to stash away millions of naira to his company. He is a thief...
