Sequel to the
judgment of Justice Chukwujekwu Aneke of the Federal High Court sitting in
Ikoyi, Lagos on Wednesday, July 16, 2025, acquitting and
discharging a former Governor of Ekiti State, Mr. Ayo Fayose from an
alleged money laundering case preferred against him by the Economic and
Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, the Commission wishes to state that it
is already studying the ruling and preparing for an appeal.
The former governor was re-arraigned on
Tuesday, July 2, 2019, alongside Spotless Investment Limited on an
11-count charge bordering on money laundering and stealing to the tune of
N6.9bn ( Six Billion Nine Hundred Naira).
The EFCC reaffirms its commitment to the rule of
law as it briefs its counsel to appeal the judgment.
