Money laundering: Trial of Fani-Kayode begins Oct 10

The trial of the former Minister of Aviation, Mr Femi Fani-Kayode, over alleged money laundering charges is now expected to begin on October 10 before Justice Binta Murtala-Nyako of a Federal High Court in Lagos.

 

The judge fixed the date after she turned down a request by the accused person to stay further proceedings in the matter, pending the determination of an appeal he filed at the Supreme Court on the admissibility of his statement of account by the Court of Appeal.

 

During Tuesday’s proceedings, Fani-Kayode’s counsel, Chris Uche, informed the court that a motion exhibiting the certified true copy (CTC) and the notice of hearing of the matter at the Supreme Court had been filed. 

 

He added that a counter-affidavit filed by the complainant to the motion at the apex court had also been exhibited. 

 

He, thereafter, urged the court to adjourn the matter, pending the determination of the appeal, saying that the defence had fulfilled the requirement of the law by exhibiting the CTC.

 

The request was, however, opposed to by the counsel for the prosecution, Nelson Okedinachi, on the ground that the defence was only looking for an avenue to stall the matter. 

 

He said the appeal before the Supreme Court was merely an academic exercise, since the matter was starting “de novo” before Justice Nyako and the plea of the accused had been taking afresh.

 

Commenting on the issue, Justice Nyako declined to stay proceedings in the matter on the ground that the appeal had nothing to do with the matter before her.
