A company belonging to a former governor of Abia State, Orji Kalu, Slok Nigeria Limited, has urged the Federal High Court, Abuja, to stop the retrial of the case against it and its chairman.

In a motion ex parte, on Monday, the firm’s counsel, Marvel Akpoyibo, told the court that he was seeking an order “prohibiting the Federal Republic of Nigeria through the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, her agents, her officers, servants, privies and any other person or bodies deriving authority from the Federal Republic of Nigeria from retrying the applicant on charge No. FHC/ABJ/CR/56/07 or any other charge based on the same facts.

The judge, Justice Iyang Ekwo, gave the counsel seven days to serve the respondents the processes and adjourned the case to July 13 for hearing. Recall that The PUNCH had earlier reported that on June 2, 2020, the Federal High Court in Lagos ordered Kalu’s release from prison.
