A Federal High Court in Lagos, on Tuesday, further adjourned trial until Dec. 2, of a former Minister of State for Finance, Nenandi Usman, and others, over N4.6 billion Money laundering charges.
Usman is standing trial alongside a former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, Yusuf Danjuma, a former Chairman of the Association of Local Governments of Nigeria (ALGON), and a Company, Jointrust Dimension Ltd.
The defendants were arraigned by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), on 17-counts.
They had each pleaded not guilty to the charges and were granted bail respectively. EFCC has since opened the case for the prosecution and is still leading witnesses in evidence.
Meanwhile, the trial of the defendants which was earlier scheduled for continuation on Tuesday, has now been moved to Dec. 2.
