MIYETTI ALLAH BOSS BODEJO DOCKED OVER $2.33M MONEY LAUNDERING CHARGES

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has arraigned Bello Abdullahi Bodejo, National President of Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, before the Federal High Court in Abuja over alleged money laundering involving a whopping $2.33 million. He was arraigned alongside a former Accountant-General of Bauchi State and other co-defendants on an amended 17-count charge filed by the commission.

The EFCC alleges the defendants handled and disbursed the funds in transactions that contravened key provisions of the Money Laundering Prevention and Prohibition Act. All the defendants pleaded not guilty when the fresh charges were read out before the court.

According to Nairametrics, the trial judge adjourned the case to allow for the hearing of bail applications and the commencement of full trial proceedings.
