The EFCC has filed new charges against Yahaya Bello, alleging his involvement in a fraud amounting to N110.4 billion
On Wednesday, a charge was submitted to a federal high court in Abuja, alleging a criminal breach of trust amounting to N110,446,470,089.
This is said to be in violation of sections 96 and 311 of the Penal Code Law Cap. 89 of Northern Nigeria, 1963, and is punishable under Section 312 of the same legislation.
The ex-governor, who stands as the only defendant in a 19-count indictment previously filed against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), is set to confront a new 16-count indictment along with two officials from the Kogi state government—Abdulsalami Hudu and Umar Oricha.
