The effort of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to nail the former governor of Imo State, Senator Rochas Okorocha in Money laundry and misappropriation case, failed on Friday, July 14, 2023 as a Court of the Federal Capital Territory dismissed the case filed against him by the anti-graft agency.
The Court presided over by Justice Yusuf Halilu dismissed the case on the ground that the EFCC’s case was an abuse of judicial process.
Justice Halilu held that the EFCC had filed a similar charge against Senator Okorocha at the Federal High Court which was decided upon in December 2022 in favour of the former governor.
