Former Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, on
Wednesday celebrated his victory at the Federal
High Court in Lagos by sharing a meal of amala
with site workers.
Justice Chukwujekwu Aneke discharged Fayose of
charges bordering on money laundering and theft
involving ₦6.9 billion, after upholding a no-case
submission filed by his legal team.
The judge ruled that the Economic and Financial
Crimes Commission failed to establish a prima
facie case or directly link him to the alleged crimes.
Fayose was first arraigned in 2018 before Justice
Mojisola Olatoregun, but the case was later
transferred to Justice Aneke.
The EFCC had accused him of receiving ₦1.2
billion for his 2014 governorship campaign and
allegedly collecting $5 million in cash from former
Minister of State for Defence, Musiliu Obanikoro,
without routing it through any financial institution.
After the judgment, Fayose was seen in a video
posted on Wednesday by Lere Olayinka, Senior
Special Assistant on Public Communications and
Social Media to the Minister of the Federal Capital
Territory, Nyesom Wike, eating amala with site
workers.
This looks funny but it is serious. Victory is in the hand of God. ゚viralシfypシ゚viralシalシ ゚viralシfypシ゚viralシ
