Justice Oyewole of the Ikeja High Court was puzzled by a motion by the
government lawyer trying the controversial businessman, Jimoh Ibrahim
whose trial for forgery would have commenced today.
A government lawyer rose before the judge and announced that the
Attorney General of the Federal, Michael Aondoakaa had instructed that
the case be discontinued henceforth.
However, the judge insisted that the lawyers move a proper motion in
writing before the court. The case was adjourned till October 30th 2008.
SaharaReporters was first to report that the AGF received several
hundreds of million of naira from the Ondo-born businessman to assist
him in returning NICON insurance to his business concerns and ensure
all criminal charges proferred against him by the EFCC are dropped.
