EFCC Re-arraigns Fayose As Ex-Governor Gets Permission For Foreign Medical Trip

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Tuesday re-arraigned former Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose for alleged money laundering, even as the court granted his application to travel to South Africa for medical treatment.

The trial judge, Justice Chukwujekwu Aneke, also ordered the release of Fayose’s international passport and that the passport be returned to the court on September 16, 2019.

The re-arraignment followed the re-assignment of the case to Justice Chukwujekwu Aneke after the prosecution expressed loss of confidence in Justice Mojisola Olatoregun, who was previously handling it.

Justice Aneke consequently admitted the former governor to bail in the terms and conditions earlier granted by Justice Olatoregun.

The trial was adjourned till September 16, 17, 18 and 19 as well as October 21 to 25, 2019.
