The N2.2bn fraud trial of former Ekiti State governor Ayodele Fayose proceeded on Friday with a banker, Olugbenga Falai, testifying as the sixth prosecution witness.
Fayose, alongside a firm, Spotless Limited, is being prosecuted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission before the Federal High Court in Lagos.
Led in evidence on Friday by the prosecuting counsel for the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Mr Rotimi Jacobs , Falai told the court that though he now works with Ecobank, he was in the employment of Skye Bank, now Polaris, as of 2016. He said after an offer and a counter-offer, Skye Bank eventually issued a letter offer to one Signature Integrated Limited in respect.
In one of the charges against Fayose, the EFCC had alleged that he purchased a property known as No.44, Osun Crescent, Maitama, Abuja for N200m in the name of “your elder sister, Mrs Moji Oladeji.”
