Alleged Forgery: Court Acquits, Discharges Fani-Kayode, Says He Has No Case To Answer
The Special Offences Court sitting in Ikeja, Lagos, on Tuesday acquitted and discharged a former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, of the charge of medical forgery levelled against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
Justice Olubunmi Abike-Fadipe freed the former minister while delivery ruling on the no case submission filed by his counsel held that the prosecution failed to establish a prima facie case against him.
The court upheld the no case-submission filed by his counsel, Norrison Quakers (SAN) and ruled that Fani-Kayode had no case to answer as the EFCC did not link him to the offence.
