Breaking: Court Frees Fayose Of Money Laundering Case
A Federal High Court in Lagos has discharged and acquitted former Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Ayodele Fayose, of all charges in his long-standing money laundering case brought against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
The court while ruling on Tuesday, upheld Fayose’s no-case submission, noting that the prosecution failed to establish a prima facie case against him to warrant further defence.
Fayose had been standing trial on allegations bordering on money laundering and fraud during his tenure as governor.
However, after years of legal proceedings, the court found that the evidence presented by the EFCC was insufficient to sustain the charges.
