Court strikes out EFCC’s suit against Okorocha

Rochas Okorocha, a former governor of Imo State, was the target of a lawsuit brought by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), but the court dismissed it.
The EFCC’s accusations of fraud and abuse of power against Okorocha were dismissed by the court on Friday, and it was noted that this was an abuse of the legal system.
Justice Yusuf Halilu based his decision on the EFCC’s filing of a comparable allegation against the former governor of Imo State at the Federal high court, whose case was settled in the former governor’s favor in December of last year.
