Former Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State has been discharged from corruption charges filed against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). This is the third time Okorocha has been freed by courts in relation to alleged fraud and corruption committed while he was governor between 2011 and 2019. Justice Yusuf Halilu of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) dismissed the charges filed by the anti-graft agency, saying that it was wrong for EFCC to continue to file similar charges against a defendant in different courts, particularly when a court of competent jurisdiction had already decided on the matter. The court held that the earlier judgement of a court of coordinate jurisdiction sitting in Port Harcourt restraining the agency from further proceeding on the alleged offence subsists. The court advised the anti-graft agency to accept that there must be an end to litigation.
