Alleged N7.6bn Fraud: Orji Kalu Opens Defence After 13 Years EFCC is prosecuting Senator Kalu and two others on an amended 39-count.

The former Governor of Abia State, Orji Uzor Kalu, has opened his defence in a case of alleged N7.6 billion fraud brought against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission .

Kalu, who had initially made a request for an adjournment prior to his client opening his defence, said after receiving the notice of Monday’s hearing, he had by a letter dated July 15 2019, informed the court that he would not be available in court because of an election petition he was handling. Mr Kalu also stated that the second and third defendants were not represented in court and since the trial was a joint one, it would be improper to proceed in their absence.

On the prompting of the court, Senator Kalu opened his defence and testified for about seven minutes.
