Court Delivers Verdict On Ex Power Minister
A Federal High Court in Abuja has convicted former Minister of Power, Saleh Mamman, in a money laundering case filed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.
The judgment was delivered by Justice James Omotosho after the court reviewed the evidence presented during the trial.
The anti-graft agency had charged the former minister with 12 counts linked to alleged financial crimes while he served in office.
Prosecutors accused him of involvement in unlawful financial dealings connected to public funds.
In his ruling, the judge said the prosecution successfully proved its case beyond reasonable doubt.
The court therefore found Mamman guilty on all the charges brought against him by the EFCC.
The conviction marks another major corruption case involving a former member of the federal cabinet.
Sentencing and other legal procedures are expected to follow after the court’s verdict.
