A statement by the agecny said that “the defendants pleaded not guilty to the charges preferred against them prompting the prosecution counsel, I.M. Elody to ask for a trial date and for the defendants to be remanded in the custody of the Correctional Service.

Counsel to the defendants pleaded for his clients to remain in the custody of the EFCC, a suggestion that was opposed by counsel to the agency.

“Justice Shuaibu adjourned the matter till October 21, 2021, and ordered that the defendants be remanded at the Nigerian Correctional Centre in Benin City.”
