Ex-Aviation Minister, Stella Oduah In Court Over Alleged Financial Misappropriation

Former Minister of Aviation, Senator Stella Oduah on Monday appeared at the Federal High Court, Abuja over alleged financial impropriety.

At the resumed sitting of the court, the prosecutor, Hassan Liman told the court that the Economic Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has been unable to serve the charges on the fifth and sixth defendants who are corporate bodies.

Following the application for adjournment by the prosecutor, Justice Inyang Ekwo fixed April 19, 2021, for the arraignment.

In a 25-count preferred against the former minister and eight others, they are accused of fraud and diversion of funds through the operation of anonymous bank accounts.

Justice Inyang Ekwo had fixed February 22 for the arraignment because the Former Minister was yet to be served with the court processes when the case was first mentioned on February 9, 2021.

Senator Oduah currently represents Anambra North Senatorial District at the National Assembly.
