The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission on Tuesday failed in its bid to re-arraign former Governor of Bayelsa State, Timipreye Sylva, and six others on a fresh 42 counts before an Abuja Federal High Court.

The EFCC had, in a statement it on Monday, announced the plan to re-arraign the former governor alongside other accused persons – Francis Okuburo, Gbenga Balogun, Samuel Ogbuku, Marlin Maritime Limited, Eat Catering Services Limited and Halloween Blue Construction and Logistics Limited.

Sylva is currently facing a pending criminal charge also filed by the EFCC before the Abuja FHC, but the anti-graft agency in the statement explained that the new charge followed fresh evidence of corruption in its investigations into the former governor’s activities while in office between 2009 and 2012.

However, the planned re-arraignment could not take place even though Sylva was within the premises of the Abuja FHC.

Justice Adamu Bello, who is hearing the pending case filed against the former governor by the EFCC, had earlier on Tuesday morning heard an application in which Sylva, for the third time, asked for the release of his international passport to enable him to travel abroad for medical attention.

As a result of the development, the EFCC had to wait for the conclusion of the hearing before it could arraign Sylva on the fresh 42 counts before Justice Ahmed Mohammed, also of the Abuja FHC.

There were indications that the former governor would be re-arrested and remanded in custody after the planned re-arraignment.

When proceedings in the fresh charge against Sylva eventually resumed before Justice Mohammed, Sylva did not enter the courtroom.

In fact, only two of the accused persons entered the dock when the case was called by the court clerk.

Tempers flared in the courtroom after EFCC lawyer, Rotimi Jacobs, SAN, informed the court that Sylva, the first accused person, was present within the court premises but had refused to enter the dock to take his plea.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission will on Tuesday re-arraign former Governor of Bayelsa State, Timipre Sylva, and six others on 42 counts before Justice A. R. Mohammed of the Federal High Court, Abuja.
The other accused persons are Francis Okuburo, Gbenga Balogun, Samuel Ogbuku, Marlin Maritime Limited, Eat Catering Services Limited and Haloween Blue Construction and Logistics Limited.
According to a statement on Monday by the Acting Head, Media and Publicity, EFCC, Wilson Uwujaren, Sylva’s re-arraignment is sequel to fresh evidence linking him with a bouquet of fraudulent transactions that border on money laundering during his tenure as governor of Bayelsa State between 2009-2012.
The anti-graft agency had earlier arraigned Sylva over six counts of criminal conspiracy and conversion of state’s property and resources amounting to N2.45bn before Justice Adamu Bello of the Federal High Court, Abuja.
The Prosecution counsel, Festus Keyamo, said Sylva allegedly perpetrated the fraud through proxies under the false pretences of using the amount to augment salaries of the Bayelsa State Government.

The Deji of Akure of Akure, Oba Adebiyi Adesida, the monarch that presides over Akureland, the Ondo State capital is dead.

Details of his passage was sketchy as of press time but our correspondent learnt on Sunday that the monarch died around 4am as a result of an unknown complication.

The 63-year-old first class paramount ruler ascended the throne about three years ago after his predecessor was deposed as a result of a street fight with one of the former monarch’s wives.

A highly competent source confirmed the death but said such announcement could only be made after seven days in accordance with tradition.

Details later.
