“My company is being owed N24 million for printing ex-President Goodluck Jonathan’s campaign posters during 2015 presidential election,” says Mr Olusegun Idowu, a witness in Femi Fani-Kayode’s trial.
Idowu, was the first witness of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in the ongoing trial of the then Director for Media and Publicity of Jonathan’s Campaign Organisation, Femi Fani-Kayode.
Fani-Kayode is standing trial on an alleged N4.9 billion fraud.
He is being charged alongside a former minister of State for Finance, Nenadi Usman, one Danjuma Yusuf and a company, Joint Trust Dimensions Ltd.
They are standing trial on a 17-count charge bordering on conspiracy, unlawful retention of proceeds of theft and money laundering.
They all pleaded not guilty to all the counts.
Idowu, while giving evidence, said the N24 million was part of a total of N54 million which was for pasting of posters and consultancy jobs, his company did for the ex-president’s campaign organisation during the 2015 election.
