Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Adeyemi
Ikuforiji has been discharged and acquitted by Justice Ibrahim Buba of the
Federal High Court, Lagos from money laundering charges.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, (EFCC), had
accused Ikuforiji and Oyebode Atoyebi, his aide, of laundering around N600
million but the two-time Speaker has been acquitted in what has sparked huge
euphoria amongst his supporters.
In his ruling, the judge described the trial as
“anachronistic”.
"This proceeding should have been treated as an aborted
trial and the charges should have been withdrawn," he said.
