Civil society groups under the aegis of the Coalition of Civil Society Organizations in Nigeria (CSON), has accused a former Nigerian federal lawmaker, Senator Stella Oduah and Justice Inyang Ekwo of the Federal High Court, Abuja, of conspiracy to thwart justice on the N7.9 billion fraud allegation against Oduah.
The Coalition made the allegation on Monday at a press conference held in Abuja, saying that Oduah and her co-defendants in the case have orchestrated a plot to evade justice in the case of N7.9 billion fraud levelled against them by the Nigerian government.
Oduah and Justice Ekwo continue to make total mockery of the judiciary and the anti-corruption stance of the APC-led Federal Government?”The Coalition further said, “Our credible intelligent sources have revealed to us that Senator Stella Oduah and other “powerful forces” within and outside the judiciary have perfected plans for her never to step into the witness box to take her plea on the case.
