The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, describes as unfortunate the acquittal of Robert Azibaola, a cousin to former president, Goodluck Jonathan, who was charged for $40 million fraud before Justice Nnamdi Dimgba. The EFCC expresses concern that despite the weight of evidence brought before the Court and witnesses presented, Justice Dimgba held that, "the prosecution must show directly how the defendant took possession of funds and knew that it forms part of proceeds of corruption." Invariably, the Commission's legal team will be studying the judgement thoroughly and will be taking necessary actions to appeal it as we hope that the appellate court shall view the merit of the prosecution and do justice to the case.The post EFCC says the acquittal of Goodluck Jonathan's cousin Robert Azibaola who was charged for $40 million fraud is 'unfortunate' appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
