Court dismisses EFCC N19.2bn fraud charges against Timpre Sylva

The Federal High Court in Abuja has dismissed the N19.2 billion fraud charges filed against former Bayelsa state governor Timpre Sylva by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC. At the resumed hearing of the case today, Justice Adeniyi Ademola dismissed the case, saying it was an abuse of court process. He stated that the fraud charges brought against the former governor who is now the APC candidate in the Bayelsa governorship election, had been dismissed by two federal high courts, and resuscitation was tantamount to an abuse of court process.

  2. Congrats to him.
    Still don't fancy him winning the Bayelsa guber, Sylva is not an improvement on Seriake.

  20. APC change! Criminals in disguise as agents of change. Timipri Sylva is coming back to steal to enable him fly with elicopter to enable him sniff illicit drugs. A party that recycle criminals has nothing to offer Nigerians, especially when their president is using analog ideas in the 21st century.

  23. Good for him .. But should know that governance presently in our country is no more business as usual... And I will also strongly blame Nigerian youths for their vulnerability and sentimentality as regard matters of national important for not protesting where they supposed and protest where they ought not to.... Why will byelsians allowed dis man to be going back to their govt house??? Not even sure he will Win.. Oil state and nothing meaningfully is moving there in d area of infrastructures

  27. At this rate, I seriously am beginning to get a little ambivalent about this APC dominated government! Nigerians are wiser today though the problem remains we hardly speak out. I will be forced to do so if moves like this proceeds.
