EFCC Loses Forgery Case Against Femi Fani-Kayode
A Nigerian court has dismissed the forgery case filed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) against former aviation minister Femi Fani-Kayode. The case, which centered on allegations of document falsification, was thrown out due to insufficient evidence.
The EFCC had accused Fani-Kayode of forging medical documents to evade trial in a separate case. However, his legal team argued that the allegations were baseless and politically motivated. The court, after reviewing the evidence, ruled in favor of Fani-Kayode, marking a legal victory for the former minister. 
Reacting to the verdict, Fani-Kayode expressed relief, thanking his legal team and supporters. Meanwhile, the EFCC has yet to announce whether it will appeal the ruling.
