EFCC to arraign Atiku’s lawyer for laundering $2m

 

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has perfected plans to arraign a lawyer, Mr. Uyiekpen Giwa-Osagie, for allegedly laundering $2m in the build-up to this year’s general elections.

 

Giwa-Osagie, who is said to be lawyer to the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the election, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, was alleged to have handled the $2m cash without going through a financial institution.

 

Already, the EFCC has filed three counts against him before the Federal High Court in Lagos.
