N19.2bn Scam: why EFCC Re-arraigns Timipre Sylva


The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC will tomorrow, December 3, 2013 arraign former Governor of Bayelsa State, Timipre  Sylva and six others on a 42- count amended charge before Justice A. R. Mohammed of the Federal High Court, Abuja.
The other accused persons are Francis Okuburo, Gbenga S. Balogun, Samuel Ogbuku,  Marlin Maritime Limited, Eat Catering Services Limited and Haloween Blue Construction and Logistics Limited. Sylva’s re-arraignment is sequel to fresh evidence linking him with a bouquet of fraudulent transactions that borders on money laundering during his tenure as governor of Bayelsa State between 2009-2012.
