Yahaya Bello Scandal: EFCC Can't Be The Accuser And Judge

The Court of Appeal in Abuja has ruled that former Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello must face trial for alleged involvement in a staggering N80 billion fraud. This decision marks a significant turn in the case, overturning a lower court's controversial ruling that had previously shielded Bello from legal proceedings. Justice Ken Amadi condemned the lower court's decision as "scandalous" and stressed that law enforcement agencies must be allowed to carry out their duties. Despite Bello's attempts to avoid the trial, including skipping six scheduled court sessions, the court has now mandated his appearance for arraignment. The case, involving 19 counts of money laundering, highlights ongoing issues within Nigeria's political and legal systems. The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission's head of media, Dele Oyewale, joins us to discuss this landmark ruling. Stay tuned to get the full scoop on this high-profile case.
