The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has filed a notice of appeal against the ruling of Justice Nnamdi Dimgba of the Federal High Court, Abuja, which acquitted Abiodun Agbele, an associate of the former Ekiti State governor, Ayodele Fayose, and three others in the ₦1.2bn money laundering charge brought against them by the commission.

Agbele and three (3) companies linked to him together with the former governor, namely Sylvan Mcnamara Limited, De Privateer Limited, and Spotless Investment Limited were listed as the first to fourth respondents in the appeal.

The ₦1.2bn is said to be part of the sum of ₦4.7 billion belonging to the Federal Government and allegedly transferred from an account associated with the Office of the National Security Adviser (NSA) in the Central Bank of Nigeria.

Justice Dimgba had on the 21 June, 2024, upheld the no-case submission of Agbele and ruled that he had no case to answer.

In the notice of appeal, the EFCC, through its prosecuting counsel, Wahab Shittu, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, listed 17 grounds of appeal and sought two reliefs from the Court of Appeal.
