Alleged money laundering: EFCC re-arraigns Air Commodore Umar

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, (EFCC), on Wednesday re-arraigned a member of the Presidential Committee on procurement of arms and equipment in the Armed Forces, Air Commodore Umar Mohammed (Rtd) in a Federal High Court in Abuja.

Mohammed was re-arraigned with his company, Easy Jet Integrated Services Limited before Justice Inyang Ekwo.

He was re-arraigned on an amended five-count charge bordering on money laundering, illegal possession of firearms and possession of official documents without lawful authority.

Mohammed pleaded not guilty to all counts just as a not guilty plea was entered for his company.

Following the not guilty plea, prosecuting counsel, Mr Sanusi Dakat prayed the court for a date to commence trial.

Dakat also told the court that he would call seven witnesses who were all within the jurisdiction of the court to prove his case.

Counsel to the defendant, Mr Y.D. Dangana prayed the court to re-admit Mohammed to bail on the conditions earlier granted by the previous judges he was arraigned before.

In his ruling, the trial judge, justice Inyang Ekwo admitted Mohammed to bail on the terms earlier granted and adjourned the matter until Oct. 12 to 15 for trial.

Mohammed and his company had been previously arraigned before Justices Nnamdi Dimgba and John Tsoho of the same court and were admitted to bail.

Mohammed’s rearraignment was informed by the transfer of the case to another judge and the amendment of the earlier charge by the prosecution.

Mohammed and his company are accused of conspiracy to commit money laundering, illegal possession of firearms and secret act violation.

The Department of State Service (DSS) arrested Umar in June 2016 for allegedly fronting for other members of the Presidential Arms Panel in receiving large sums of money from certain individuals and companies in order to evade prosecution.(NAN)

This set of leaders are the worse to ever rule Nigeria. those of you still forming loyalty to party, religion or tribe should know that if the looting continues unchallenged, then insecurity would he so terrible that going across your house or answering a call on the road with a good phone can be a death sentence.

it's high time we rise up and speak, irrespective of our tribe or religion...this government has failed us.

soldiers are dying in their thousands yet one man would divert funds meant for arms that would give us the upper hand in this war.

I would encourage every youth to arm him/herself with their PVC. come 2023 we'll correct this mess

If we ask this Fulani federal government to show us all the most senior operative at the efcc commission, i am sure they are all northerners.

The new acting chairman, Mohammed Umar, has no history, past event or any known activity before or at least for the past 6 years according to my research.

What we have is a new puppet to continue where the last casted thief stopped.

Now that their boss is on the hot seat, It's now they want to start working abi? So these guys have been collecting bribes all this while to look the other way, only to aggressively come after Nigerian youths so it seems like they're working.

The re_arraignments should quickly get back to Orji Uzor kalu.. that man has no business breathing thesame air as free people..and more Importantly the Alpha beta file tucked away by Magu needs urgent revisit.

Buhari has decided to truncate the system. In previous administration before anyone is appointed EFCC chairman, they would first undergo senate screening and approval. But Buhari has appointed two EFCC chairmen without them receiving senate approval.

The first one that was appointed without senate approval, made us a laughing stock in the international community. The second one was recently appointed, without senate approval.
