A Federal High Court in Lagos has barred Festus Keyamo from further prosecuting Femi Fani-Kayode, former Aviation Minister, for alleged money laundering charges.
The EFCC had charged Mr. Fani-Kayode, in 2008, with 47 counts of money laundering amounting to N500 million.
The judge said that Vitalis Ahaotu, who was appearing for Mr. Keyamo, failed to present the fiat empowering his firm to take up the case on behalf of the Attorney General of the Federation.
The judge, however, declined the request by Mr. Fani-Kayode to strike out the charges against him.
