EFCC asks court not to reverse guilty request of four organizations

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has encouraged the Federal High Court in Lagos to decline an application by four organizations going to turn around their liable supplication to washing of $15,591,700.

The organizations are Pluto Properties and Investment Company Limited, Seagate Property Development and Investment Limited, Trans Ocean Property and Investment Company Limited and Avalon Global Property Development Company Limited.

The organizations are appealing to God for a request putting aside their conviction by Justice Babs Kuewumi on November 2, 2016 after they confessed through their agents.

As indicated by them, their trial and conviction were done "in net infringement of their entitlement to reasonable hearing."

The organizations, in the application documented for their benefit by Chief Mike Ozekhome (SAN), said their conviction was an unnatural birth cycle of equity.

In its counter-sworn statement marked by an exploring officer, Musbhau Yahaya, the EFCC said the application was a manhandle of court process and that the judge can't be requested to overrule himself.

EFCC, in the counter-oath, asserted that a previous Special Adviser on Domestic Affairs to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Waripamo Dudafa, purportedly got piece of the cash from previous National Security Adviser (NSA), Sambo Dasuki.



EFCC said Dasuki pulled back the cash from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and "gave it" over to Dudafa.

The Commission said Dudafa laundered the cash through the organizations.

He is as of now being attempted alongside a legal counselor, Amajuoyi Briggs and a broker, Adedamola Bolodeoku. They argued not liable to tax evasion charges.

Be that as it may, the four organizations accused along of them conceded and were sentenced.

Spouse of previous President Jonathan, Dame Patience, in a different suit, is laying cases to the cash.
