EFCC Filed a 112-Count Charge Against Orji Kalu
2nd May '08
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission on Wednesday filed a fresh 112-count charge against a former governor of Abia State, Chief Orji Uzor Kalu. In the charge sheet, the EFCC said Kalu transferred N887m to the account of Slok Nigeria Limited on August 2, 2005.
Charged with the former governor were his mother, Eunice, a Permanent Secretary in Abia State, Mr. Udeh James, and one Mr. Emeka Abone, who are said to be at large. Slok, which the former governor is believed to have a major stake in, was also charged.
Only Kalu and Udeh were in the dock. Both pleaded not guilty to the charges and were admitted to bail by Justice Adamu Bello. The judge adopted the bail conditions granted to Kalu in the previous arraignment before Justice Binta Murtala-Nyako, who had since been transferred to Lagos.
