The Federal high court in Abuja today remands GEJ's cousin Azibaola in prison custody for alleged $40m fraud pending the time his bail application will be reviewed. Azibaola has been in EFCC custody since March when he was invited for
questioning over a $40m contract which he allegedly received from the
office of embattled former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki.
According to reports, Azibaola and his wife, Stella, used their company, Oneplus Holding Limited, to collect contracts from NSA's office prompting EFCC to file a seven count charge against him.
Azibaola who arrived the court in company of his wife who was also taken into custody yesterday June 6th pleaded not guilty to corruption and money laundering charges read to them.
Stella was given administrative bail while Azibaola's bail application
will come up tomorrow.
