JUST IN: Court Issues Warrant Of Arrest Against Ex-NIA DG, Wife
A federal high court sitting in Lagos has ordered the arrest of former director-general of the National Intelligence Agency (NIA), Ayodele Oke and his wife, Folashade.
Oke and wife were arraigned by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) but the commission is finding it difficult to secure their attendance in court.
The EFCC therefore approached the court to help get the duo to appear in court.
Granting the application, the court issued a bench warrant for arrest of the duo on Thursday.
The presiding judge, Justice Chukwujekwu Aneke, had directed that the duo be arrested anywhere they are sighted across the world.
“It is hereby ordered that Ambassador Ayodele Oke and wife, Folasade Oke be arrested anywhere they have been sighted in the world,” he held.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) had filed a four-count charge against them in connection with the $43 million, £27,000 and N23 million discovered in April 2017.
