•Anti-graft agency grills ex-AGF for six hours •He’s in poor health condition, says Ozekhome

Ozekhome also faulted the detention of the ex-AGF and warned against the persecution of the former minister. “His lawyers were also part of the interrogating sessions with Adoke as part of our commitment to fairness and equity. “So far, they are according him maximum respect while executing what is on their mind. We made an agreement with EFCC on Adoke’s meals and it was granted.”Meanwhile, Adoke’s lawyer, Chief Mike Ozekhome has faulted the detention of the ex-AGF. Ozekhome, in a statement in Abuja, said Adoke ought to be granted bail by the EFCC for him to attend to his “poor health.”

“This step led to a legal stalemate, since the UAE and Interpol authorities would not, and could never have extradited Adoke based on a non- existent warrant of arrest. “It was therefore a matter of great surprise that the Interpol still arrested him upon arrival and handed him over to the EFCC. “Is it meant to negatively put him in the public domain, try him, convict him and sentence him, through media trial?

The EFCC made this public in a document it filed before the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory in support of the motion it filed for an order to remand Adoke. In a supporting affidavit, the EFCC said it “is investigating a case involving Malabu Oil Nigeria Limited wherein the defendant, in his capacity as the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice between 2012 and 2015, along with his cohorts, embezzled money in excess of a billion United States dollars.
