Judge withdraws From EFCC’s Cases Against Malami

News Investigators/ Justice Obiora Egwuatu, on Thursday, recused (withdrew) himself from the two cases filed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) against Mr Abubakar Malami, former Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice.

Justice Egwuatu, who was recently re-assigned the case by the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, Justice John Tsoho, said he decided to withdraw from the two cases for personal reasons and for better interest of justice.

The development occured shortly after the civil suit for forfeiture of 57 property allegedly linked to Malami was called for mention.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the cases were formerly before Justice Emeka Nwite, who sat as vacation judge during the Christmas break.
