Before proceedings began, he was overheard chatting with an associate about the forthcoming convention of the African Democratic Congress, asking, “So tomorrow is our convention, right?” to which the associate replied, “God willing,” indicating his continued involvement in party affairs despite the ongoing case. In a related development, El-Rufai is also facing a separate 10-count charge before the Federal High Court in Kaduna.

EFCC Insists On Retrial Of Sule Lamido By Former Judge

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has insisted that the retrial of former Jigawa State governor Sule Lamido on alleged N1.35 billion fraud charges should be handled by the original trial judge, Justice Ijeoma Ojukwu. The anti graft agency revealed it has written to the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, Justice John Tsoho, requesting that Justice Ojukwu, who was transferred to the Calabar division, be brought back to Abuja to continue with the case. Lamido, his two sons Aminu and Mustapha, and some companies are facing a 37 count charge bordering on money laundering and alleged diversion of funds linked to Jigawa State contracts while he was governor. The defendants were first arraigned in 2015, but in July 2023 the Court of Appeal upheld their no case submissions and struck out the charges, prompting the EFCC to […]

Court jails ex acting AGF Nwabuoku eight years for N868m fraud

A Federal High Court in Abuja has sentenced former acting Accountant General of the Federation, Chukwunyere Nwabuoku, to eight years in prison after finding him guilty of N868 million money laundering charges.​ Justice James Omotosho ruled that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission proved all nine counts against Nwabuoku beyond reasonable doubt, as required by law. He rejected any option of fine and ordered that the eight year sentence on each count should run concurrently.​ The judge described Nwabuoku’s conduct as appalling, noting that he diverted funds meant for security and defence while serving as Director of Finance and Accounts in the Ministry of Defence between 2019 and 2021.​ Justice Omotosho praised the EFCC for the detailed manner in which it handled the prosecution. He also pointed out that evidence from one of the prosecution witnesses, that Nwabuoku voluntarily refunded […]

Prince Andrew property sale linked to suspect funds

A BBC investigation has found that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor received millions of pounds from the sale of his former Berkshire mansion through funds linked to a company later implicated in criminal corruption cases. The buyer, Kazakh billionaire Timur Kulibayev, confirmed through his lawyers that he relied partly on a loan from a firm called Enviro Pacific Investments to purchase Sunninghill Park for £15 million. Italian prosecutors later concluded that Enviro Pacific had received money connected to a bribery scheme dating back to 2007. The purchase of Sunninghill Park was completed just weeks after the final payments linked to the alleged corruption were made. Kulibayev reportedly paid significantly above the property’s asking price and market value. At the time, he was among the most powerful figures in Kazakhstan’s oil and gas sector and the son-in-law of then-president Nursultan Nazarbayev. Kulibayev’s legal team […]

India deports 32 Nigerians over alleged drug network links

Indian authorities have deported 32 Nigerians after a nationwide crackdown on an alleged transnational drug network operating across several major cities. The deportations came less than two weeks after around 50 Nigerian suspects were arrested in coordinated raids led by India’s Elite Anti Narcotics Group for Law Enforcement, known as EAGLE, working with Delhi Police.​ Investigators say the network was allegedly controlled by a Nigeria based kingpin identified only as “Nick,” who is wanted in multiple drug trafficking cases in India. Officials claim all the Nigerians arrested in Delhi were working for the fugitive mastermind, who is believed to have about 100 associates in the city alone.​ A forensic review of seized phones and laptops reportedly showed a client base of more than 3,000 people across India, pieced together from payment records, encrypted chats and delivery contacts. The syndicate is […]

Three Thai Women Arrested Over Romance Scam Linked to Nigerians

Thai authorities have arrested three women allegedly linked to a romance scam network reportedly run by a group of Nigerians, which defrauded victims of more than six billion baht.

FATF Removes Nigeria, South Africa, Mozambique, and Burkina Faso from Grey List

A global financial crimes watchdog, the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), has officially removed South Africa, Nigeria, Mozambique, and Burkina Faso from its “grey list” of countries under increased monitoring for money laundering and terrorist financing concerns. The FATF, headquartered in France, announced the decision on Friday following what it described as “successful on-site visits” that confirmed significant progress by all four countries in addressing identified deficiencies within the agreed timelines. The organization maintains two key lists: the “grey list,” which includes countries making efforts to correct weaknesses in their anti-money laundering frameworks, and the “black list,” reserved for jurisdictions that pose the highest financial crime risks and show little cooperation. FATF President Elisa de Anda Madrazo called the delisting “a positive story for the continent of Africa,” noting that each country demonstrated substantial reforms. According to the FATF, South […]
