The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and former Chief of Air Staff Air Marshal Adesola Amosu on Thursday traded blames over their inability to hold plea bargaining talks.

The lawyer said he personally called the defence counsel, including Chief Bolaji Ayorinde and Norrison Quakers , to schedule a meeting, but that they never honoured his invitations. “It is true that we wrote a couple of letters to the prosecution. There was no reply to either of them. Their style is that they will never write in response to any request.

“We sent letters which were duly acknowledged. But there has been no official communication. In fairness to Oyedepo, he has been doing his bit, but it is not right for an institution not to reply to a letter,” the SAN said.
