The Federal High Court in Abuja has restrained the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) from re-trying the former governor of Abia State, Orji Kalu in an alleged N7.1billion charge.
The presiding Judge, Justice Inyang Ekwo held that since there is no extant judgment ordering the re-trial of the former governor and the same was not made by the Supreme Court, the Federal High Court can not order his retrial.
Justice Ekwo however ordered the retrial of the second respondent, Ude Udeogu, a former Director of Finance and Account with the Abia state government.
The Supreme Court order on Mr. Udeogu was explicit, that the case file is returned to the chief judge for assignment to another judge.
No order was made that the case file of the former governor is returned to the chief judge for assignment to another judge.
