The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), on Wednesday, concluded its case against Gabriel Suswam, a former governor of Benue State, in a money laundering trial involving N3.1 billion allegedly diverted from the state’s treasury.
EFCC lawyer, Oluwaleke Atolagbe, closed the prosecution’s case after the eighth prosecution witness, Adewale Agunbiade, finished testifying before the trial judge, Ahmed Mohammed, on Wednesday.
Mr Suswam and his former finance commissioner, Omadachi Oklobia, were arraigned before the Federal High Court in Abuja on an 11-count amended charge in 2015.
