Fresh facts have emerged regarding the trial of former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode and others over an alleged N4.6 billion.

According to a report by The Punch, the money laundering trial could not continue on Wednesday, January 25th, due to the absence of prosecution and defence counsels.

Meanwhile, the court had on the last adjourned date fixed January 25 for the continuation of trial but the matter could not proceed as the court was informed that the prosecution and defence counsels were both appearing at the court of appeal.

The case was further adjourned till January 26. Fani-Kayode is standing trial alongside a former Minister of State for Finance, Nenandi Usman; Yusuf Danjuma, a former Chairman of the Association of Local Governments of Nigeria and a company, Jointrust Dimentions Nigeria Limited.
