NBC boss Kawu, three others re-arraigned over N2.5b fraud case

The Director General of the National Broadcasting Commission Moddibbo Kawu was re-arraigned with three others on Monday before a Federal High Court in over alleged fraud in the handling of N2.5 billion part of seed grant for Digital Switch-Over project of the Federal Government.

After their re-arraignment, Justice Folasade Giwa-Ogunbanjo allowed them to continue to enjoy the bail earlier granted them.Justice Giwa-Ogunbanjo noted that the prosecution was yet to file a report of its verification of the information supplied by the sureties presented by the defendants in respect of the earlier bail granted them.

She consequently halted proceedings and insisted that the prosecution comply with the order made by the court before further proceedings could be conducted in the case. When proceedings resumed some hours later, Emore said the motion, reporting verification of the bail conditions has been deposited in the court’s registry.Upon going through a copy of the motion, the judge drew the attention of the lead defence lawyer, Alex Izinyon toparagraphs 3d and 3e, where the prosecution raised issues about addresses of the sureties.
