The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission , has tendered as evidence 108 bank cheques used by Femi Fani-Kayode, the former Minister of Aviation, to allegedly launder money during the 2015 general election.
Particularly, Fani-Kayode who held sway as the Director of Publicity of the former president of Nigeria, Goodluck Jonathan's campaign organisation for the 2015 election, was accused of conspiring with others to, directly and indirectly, retain various sums which the EFCC claimed they ought to have reasonably known were proceeds of crime.
The EFCC said he made cash transactions in the sum of N24m to one Olubode Oke, said to still be at large, on February 12, 2015 “to Paste Poster Co of 125, Lewis Street, Lagos Island.” “One of the cheques is N2 million, N5,0100 million, N5.650 million and N3.5050 million. All were drawn from second defendant's account."
Immediately after the conclusion of Shehu's evidence-in-chief, the EFCC's lawyer made move to tender in evidence all the Ministry of External Affairs' Statement of Accounts, account documents package and certificate of identification for admissibility.While asking Justice Aikawa to reject the documents, Usman’s lawyer, Yussuf and K. C. Nwofor who stood for Jointrust Limited, told the court that the documents were not legible.
The Quakers further argued that the documents sought to be tendered are not qualified to be called 'public documents' as there is nothing on its face to show that it was forwarded to the EFCC.
