Judge Withdraws From EFCC Case Against Malami
Obiora Egwuatu, judge of a federal high court in Abuja, has withdrawn from presiding over two cases involving Abubakar Malami, former attorney-general of the federation and minister of justice.
At the court session on Thursday, Egwuatu said he decided to withdraw from the cases for personal reasons and in the interest of justice.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is prosecuting Malami on a 16-count charge bordering on money laundering.
