The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission on Monday re -arraigned a former Director- General of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency , Haruna Jauro, for alleged stealing and laundering of N156 .4 m .
Jauro, alongside Dr Dauda Bawa and Thlumbau Enterprises Limited, was re- arraigned on 19 counts before Justice Chuka Obiozor of the Federal High Court in Lagos .
The four- year- old case is starting afresh before Justice Obiozor after it had reached the stage of final written addresses , a step away from judgment, before Justice Mojisola Olatoregun , who retired in November 2019 .
In a bid to prove the case, the EFCC had called a total of 16 witnesses , while the defence called five witnesses in a bid to exonerate themselves before Justice Olatoregun .
With the re- arraignment , all the steps taken before Justice Olatoregun will be repeated before Justice Obiozor.
In the charges, the EFCC alleged that the defendants in January 2014 converted N156 . 4 m belonging to NIMASA to their own in contravention of Section 18 (a ) of the Money Laundering ( Prohibition ) Act 2012 and were liable to punishment under Section 15 ( 3 ) of the same Act.
They , however , pleaded not guilty on Monday as they had done before Justice Olatoregun .

The prosecuting counsel for the EFCC, Usman Buhari , urged the court to fix a date for commencement of trial and to make an order remanding the defendants in the correctional custody .
But the defence counsel, Olalekan Ojo ( SAN) , urged the court to allow his clients continue on the bail granted them by Justice Olatoregun .
In a ruling , Justice Obiozor granted Ojo ’s bail request and adjourned till March 17 , 2021, for commencement of trial .

Nothing will happen after the back and forth!

We are also hoping OUK's trial begins earnestly

Good. What about Maina?
