Court Admits Key Exhibits in Yahaya Bello’s N80 Billion Fraud Trial

 


The Federal High Court in Abuja has admitted key exhibits in the ongoing N80.2 billion fraud and money-laundering trial of former Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello.

Presided over by Justice Emeka Nwite, the court accepted bank statements and supporting documents presented by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). These exhibits cover transactions from December 2018 to August 2021 and include withdrawals in multiples of ₦10 million from accounts associated with the Kogi State Government House and various local government councils.

During the proceedings, the defense raised objections regarding the certificate of identification of the exhibits. The court has adjourned further hearings to allow the defense adequate time to examine the documents.

Bank account statements linked to the Kogi State Government.

Records of withdrawals from accounts tied to local government councils.

Supporting documentation aimed at tracing alleged misappropriated funds.

The admission of exhibits does not imply guilt. The trial is ongoing, and the court will still determine the relevance and authenticity of the evidence.

Some witnesses have testified that Yahaya Bello’s name does not appear as a beneficiary in certain transactions, indicating that the case remains contested.

The trial continues to attract nationwide attention as Nigerians await further developments in one of the country’s most high-profile corruption cases.
