BREAKING: N84bn fraud: Yahaya Bello’s absence stalls arraignment

Yahaya Bello, the governor of Kogi State from the past administration, was not present before the Federal High Court in Abuja on Thursday.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, or EFCC, planned to charge the former governor with a money laundering crime totalling N84 billion.

Bello was not present in court for his arraignment, according to EFCC attorney Kemi Phinro, because someone with immunity was shielding him.

The lawsuit was then postponed to April 23rd by Justice Emeka Nwite.

Details to follow.
