The charges were increased from the initial 42 to 50 by the anti-graft agency and this has already been filed and will probably be assigned to a new judge. The charges, according to a document were prepared and filed in court by the Director of Legal of the EFCC, Mr. Chile Okoroma.
In the new charges, EFCC listed acts of looting allegedly carried out by Sylva when he was the governor of the state. He is also alleged to have connived with three companies to commit the offences charged against him between 2007 and 2011.
The filing of fresh charges against Sylva came barely a week after Justice A.R. Mohammed dismissed the 42-count charge against the former governor on account of abuse of court processes.
However, the commission immediately faulted the action of the judge for dismissing the case without it being heard.
It noted that the dismissal of the charge by Justice Mohammed following the application of the commission to consolidate the charges against the former governor and his accomplices, did not amount to a discharge or an acquittal, and it did not preclude the power of the agency to bring fresh charges against the defendants.

The EFCC should stop abusing court process. If this was done by private individuals people will complain. All of a sudden they realize they have 50 new charges. clueless people. I hope the judge threw them away. Beside, its high time Buhari implement the changes, as far as am concern there cannot be changes if these same monsters remain in their various offices.
Hmmmmm interesting..
That is if Buhari and his anti-corruption movement will not ask the court to dismiss the case again. I wonder how that old man called Buhari will fight corruption when his caucus are so corrupt. We are watching.

Alll this people looting heavy money they won't even go to their graves with.
Ode. You no fit read? Charges were dropped and fresh charges have been filed. Go back to school biko
I am watching why under the watch of the so called anti corrupt govt the court had to dismiss the first charges of EFCC against Sylver on a mere excuse of abuse of court process.
I hope the govt is not influencing the judiciary on this case. They should allow the EFCC to do their job. If Sylver is guilty he should be prosecuted.
It is a pity that the change and anti corrupt government is being surrounded by the worst corrupt individuals.
May God save Nigeria.
