The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC,has urged the Court of Appeal, Abuja to nullify the ruling of the Federal High Court that stopped the retrial of a former governor of Abia State, Orji Kalu, over a N7 billion fraud case.
The commission, similarly, filed a separate notice of appeal in respect of Kalu’s firm, Slok Nigeria Limited, which was also shielded from retrial.
Kalu, a serving senator representing Abia North, was serving a 12-year jail term for the offences, when the Supreme Court, on May 8, 2020, nullified the proceedings leading to his and his co-defendants’ conviction.
