How has he started? Do you have a case of selective reasoning? The lawyer said that they haven't been served any papers and learned of it on social media.

what kind of foolishness is this? You read the part where chukwumas lawyer even refused to be served in court and the judge ordered for copies of the service be dropped on his table? instead of appearing in court, that fraudulent criminal called chukwuma is challenging the jurisdiction of the court to hear his charges. That man is a born fraudster and criminal.

All because na igboman. If na yoruba or hausa, all this gra gra for no happen. Fact!

Ok

The level of reasoning displayed on this thread is alarming.... Further proves that we're not united and we need to go our different ways. How does any sensible person, who arguably reads the article and comes to a sound conclusion that a defendant that hasn't been properly served, would show up in court just because he heard of his charges on social media? Just pathetic...

The pigs and idiots will evade this thread but when he is arrested, they will start shouting a witch hunt because he is igbo.

Ipob, tell your brother to appear in court and defend himself if indeed he is innocent, he will win this case.

To be served in court you say? Wonderful. So the service of process is done in court abi? Guy, biko park one side. Why would the judge ORDER the charge sheet to be dropped on the table if a normal service of process in court is within the rule of law? When you answer that question, let me know...

P.S.: The Judge is being mischievous by interfering with certain covenants of civil/criminal procedures, a case of judicial overreach. The judge does not enact laws, rather looks up to the laws as a guiding principle. The judge has shown bias and needs to recuse himself from this case.

You just betrayed yourself with the last sentence.

If the man wasn't served he cannot appear in Court.

And why didn't EFCC serve him when he was arrested locked-up last december.

jayson87:
Mr. Innocent, go to court and prove yourself, i have a strong feeling this case will go in your favour, GTB must pay. Consumer protection should also fine GTB for fraudulent deductions from a customer's account.

His Lawyer said he wasn't served.

Jelousy people

I am liking the judge already.
Just she how she arranged the business man to be served!

Even when the lawyer did not want to accept the document, the judge just reasoned am Sharp to just drop the dawn thing on the table in front of am.

Oya lawyer carry go give your client!

February go soon so. Let's wait and see the direction the case will follow!

Enough drama for my naija.

I've noticed that whenever an igbo man is involved in anything criminal, everyone is guilty except that igbo man. Now you're saying the judge is overreaching. Hitherto it was the EFCC that was overeaching. Then it was GTB that was wrong. You people are a bunch of lousy criminals. Crime runs in your blood!

Innocent Chukwuma, Chairman, Innoson Motors Nigeria Limited, on Wednesday failed to make an appearance at an Ikeja High Court for his arraignment by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on charges of fraud and stealing.

PoliticsNGR learnt that Chukwuma was to be arraigned alongside his company, Innoson Motors Limited, and Charles Chukwuma.

The defendants, however, failed to appear for their scheduled arraignment to the consternation of the anti-graft agency.

Mr U. Onwukwe, the counsel to the defendants told the court that he had filed an application challenging the jurisdiction of the court to hear the case.

“We have an application objecting to the jurisdiction of this court and it was filed on Jan. 15.

“My client has not been served, when this matter was filed, the EFCC went to social media, and it was through social media that we became aware and we have not been served.

“The EFCC arrested them and they know where they reside, they granted the second defendant (Innocent Chukwuma) bail on self recognition.

He said he was told to come to EFCC office on Feb. 20, and in December, they went ahead to file these charges.

“Charles Chukwuma,who is the third defendant in the charge, was not even arrested by the EFCC,” Onwukwe said.

Interjecting, counsel to the EFCC, Miss Zainab Ettu, claimed that the automobile businessman and his co-defendants were evading service.

“The most important thing is for us to proceed to trial; the defendants are on administrative bail.

“As diligent citizens of the country, when they were aware of the charges they are to come to the EFCC office with their counsel and receive a copy of the charge.

“In order to frustrate the trial, they did not come to court but rather filed a frivolous application; they have been evading service.

“The person they are trying to protect is the second defendant who thinks he is too mighty to come to court; the defence counsel is shielding his client.

“My Lord, we will be asking for the shortest possible date since they are evading service, so that we can serve them in the courtroom,” the EFCC prosecutor said.

The presiding judge, Justice Mojisola Dada, asked the EFCC to pass an advance copy of the charge to Onwukwe as a form of service.

Onwukwe, however, objected by saying that he could not accept the advance copy of the charge as a form of service to the defendants.

“Put the copy of the charge on the table if he refuses to accept it,” the judge ordered.

The defendants were to be arraigned on a four-count charge of conspiracy to obtain property by false pretenses, obtaining property by false pretenses, stealing and forgery.

According to charge sheet, the defendants committed the offences between 2009 and July 2011, in Lagos.

The EFCC alleges that defendants, with intent to defraud, conspired to obtain by false pretenses containers of motorcycle, spare parts and raw materials, property of Guaranty Trust Bank (GTB), from Mitsui OSK Lines Limited, Apapa, Lagos.

The defendants are alleged to have fraudulently induced staff of Mitsui OSK and Maersk Line to deliver to them via their clearing agents.

The goods were imported from China in the name of GTB and the defendants are accused of falsely pretending that they were authorised by the bank to clear the goods.

The prosecution claims that the defendants, in order to facilitate the fraud, forged a bill of lading numbered 598286020 of Maersk Line Limited and 11007950841 of Mutsui O.S.K Lines.

The alleged forgery was in order that the forged documents be used or acted upon as genuine, to the prejudice of any person within Lagos or elsewhere.

The offences, according to the EFCC, are in contravention of Sections 1(1)(b), 1(3), and 8(a) of the Advanced Fee Fraud and Other Related Offences Act 2016 and Sections 309(9), 388, 465 and 467(1)(j) of the Criminal Code of Lagos State 2003.

Justice Dada adjourned the case until Feb. 9 for possible arraignment.

How has he started? Do you have a case of selective reasoning? The lawyer said that they haven't been served any papers and learned of it on social media.

Are u sure u read and comprehend clearly what the prosecutor said? They are on administrative bail which means they were initially arrested. Furhtermore, the judge now instructed that the defense counsel be served an advanced charge for them to appear at a later time,they still refused to accept the charge even in court.
Abeg what miracle do u want them to do for them again? If he feels he is too big to appear before the court then he will be treated like a criminal.

That is why you and your lot always fail and always lose out. Instead of you to stand for justice and the truth, you will stand to support a tribesman and be waiting to be thanked. Support the Truth and you will never fail.

This is Nigeria where someones house can be raided, person picked up and mysteriously missing for months, but they will still say he is missing from court. He should learn from recent events, this is not yankee where they practice the law of the land.

GTBank must pay Innoson the 500 MILLION naira they accepted that they stole from his account, + accumulated interests on it.
