Former Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello has accused the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) of subjecting him to a political trial rather than genuinely prosecuting an alleged N80.2 billion money laundering case.
The allegation was made by Bello’s legal team during proceedings at the Federal High Court in Abuja, according to reports from the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN).
The claim comes amid ongoing cross-examination of prosecution witnesses as both sides seek to strengthen their cases through documentary and oral evidence.
