Anti-graft agency, Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has yesterday disclosed to a Federal High Court sitting in Lagos how a former aide to the former president Goodluck Jonathan, Mr. Waripamo-Owei Emmanuel Dudafa and two others carried out their $31.4 million fraud.

The EFCC stated that the former aide to the former president along with two others supplied fictitious addresses in carrying out their fraudulent dealings.

Speaking before the court, the EFCC’s counsel, Rotimi Oyedepo, urged the court to allow the anti-graft agency to effect the service of the charge on Globus Integrated Services Limited which was charged alongside the former presidential aide.

Along with Mr. Waripamo-Owei Emmanuel Dudafa, the two other persons charged in the case are Amajuoyi Azubike Briggs and one Damola Bolodeoku.

Other companies alongside the accused persons in the charge file ‘FHC/337C/16’ include Pluto Property and Investment Company Limited, Seagate Property Development and Investment Company Limited, Trans Ocean Property and Investment Company Limited and Avalon Global Property Development Company Limited.

Oyedepo told the court: “In line with section 123, paragraph B (iii) of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act (ACJA), in effecting service, this can be done on the secretary of the company. We have gone to the company and found out that they are not in existence.”
