Alleged Money Laundering: EFCC Witness Says Yahaya Bello, Co-Defendants Never Paid Firm For Property
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is investigating an alleged money laundering case involving former Kogi State governor Yahaya Bello, and Segun Adeleke, the second prosecution witness, has claimed to have never paid for a property owned by Efab.  ,
Umar Shuaib Oricha and Abdulsalam Hudu are the other defendants.
Adeleke continued throughout the day’s proceedings by adding that he never had any contact with the three defendants throughout the property transactions.
The witness, who works for Efab Property Limited and is a manager, claimed he had no knowledge of any of the three defendants when asked to confirm whether any of their names were on any of the transaction documents.
Prior to the trial, First Prosecution Witness PW1 Fabian Nwora had previously confirmed to the court that neither of the three defendants in the case had ever transferred funds to the account of his business, Efab Property Limited.
Nwora claimed to know the former governor, but he maintained that he was unaware of the transaction being discussed.
He claimed he started negotiations with the property, but Segun Adeleke, the EFCC’s second witness (PW2), helped bring them to an agreement.
Nwora testified at a previous hearing that he had been informed that Shehu Bello and EFAB Property had a deal happening on a property at No. Shehu approached him for the property at 1 Ikogosi Street in Maitama, it should be noted.
Adeleke, the PW2, reiterated that Shehu Bello showed an interest in the property in which he was given the brief in 2020 while being examined by the Prosecution Counsel, Kemi Pinheiro (SAN).
[Fraudulent $4.5 billion] Court Fixes on September 15 for a ruling on Emefiele’s Forensic Evidence RequestHe claimed that the transaction was concluded and that the property had received a sum of N500 million.
Shehu Bello told his chairman that he was no longer interested in the property as a result of the EFCC investigation when the prosecution lawyer inquired about what transpired afterward.
The EFCC lawyer also inquired about some documents that Nuhu Muhammed received for a property in the Federal Capital Territory’s Gwarinpa neighborhood.
The witness’ confirmation that the said Nuhu Muhammed purchased one of the detached bungalow units after receiving the documents.
The witness’s own testimony, alleged by the attorney for the defense, Joseph Daudu (SAN), raised objections at that point, claiming there was a clear disconnect between the documents sought to be tendered and the facts themselves.
The Judge overruled the objection, which the Prosecution claimed was erred by the prosecution.
The witness later confirmed that he had testified before Justice Emeka Nwite at the Federal High Court while being cross-examined by the defense attorney.
He acknowledged that he had to take the decision after the transaction had begun and that he had not even begun it.
Daudu, SAN, testified to the witness that he had claimed that funds for the alleged property at Gwarinpa were immediately transferred while giving evidence to Justice Nwite.
He continued, claiming that the process was completed in two installments and had now self-contrayed before Justice Anenih.
The witness later admitted he did not know Nuhu Muhammed despite claiming that it was in two tranches and that he had receipts.
Mrs. Williams Abimbola, a different witness, was subpoenaed for the Kogi State Government House statement of account as well as the Certificate of Identification.
The defense attorneys promised to respond to the document as necessary during the trial.

Former Spanish FA chief Rubiales loses World Cup kiss appeal
Former Spanish national football team president Luis Rubiales has lost his sexual assault conviction appeal.
After Spain’s women’s team won the 2023 World Cup, Rubiales was fined €10,800 ($9, 206) in February for kissing captain Jenni Hermoso without her consent.
A Spanish appeals court upheld the sentence, and it also rejected a separate prosecution appeal, which had pushed for a new trial and pressed for a jail term.
Hermoso’s head was grabbed by Rubiales and kissed her on the lips, which sparked protests and demands for his resignation.
The Audencia Nacional claimed on Wednesday that Hermoso had objected to the kiss from the beginning and that it did not consider it to be consensual.
It discovered Rubiales “restrained himself” when speaking with other players and “could also, without exerting too much effort, with the captain.”
Hermoso claimed at the start of her case that the kiss had “one of the happiest days” of her life because she had not given permission for it.
The judge upheld the sentence handed down in February, which forbids Rubiales from speaking to Hermoso for a year.
Additionally, the court upheld Rubiales’ right to not be tried for coerciveness.
Rubiales denied the accusations that he had pressured Hermoso to say the kiss was consensual in court.
