Orji Kalu dragged back to Court over alleged money laundering
By Abolaji Adebayo
Senate Chief Whip, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu has, on Tuesday, been dragged back to the Federal High Court in Abuja ahead of his arraignment.
The ex-Governor is set to be docked before Justice Inyang Ekwo on money laundering related charges.
Kalu was earlier found guilty and handed a 12-year jail term by the Lagos Division of the court.
The trial court convicted him alongside his firm, Slok Nigeria Limited and a former Director of Finance in Abia State, Jones Udeogu, for allegedly stealing about N7.1billion from the state treasury.
But his conviction was overruled by an Appeal Court.
