Court Orders Arrest Of Ex-Enugu Governor, Nnamani

The Federal High Court in Lagos has refused the plea to vacate the bench warrant it issued for the arrest of a former governor of Enugu State, Chimaroke Nnamani.

Justice Chuka Obiozor turned down the plea made by Nnamani’s lawyer and rather insisted the ex-governor be produced before him in respect of a 5.3 billion naira fraud charge.

The judge also struck out Nnamani’s application challenging the court’s jurisdiction and seeking a perpetual injunction to restrain the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission from arresting him.
