Former Power Minister Jailed For Money Laundering

 

OpenLife Nigeria reports that a federal high court in Abuja has convicted Saleh Mamman, former minister of power, on allegations of money laundering.
James Omotosho, presiding judge, convicted Mamman on all 12 counts preferred against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Omotosho held that he was satisfied that the anti-graft agency had successfully established the ex-minister’s culpability beyond a reasonable doubt.
Saleh Mamman served as minister of power under then-President Muhammadu Buhari from August 21, 2019, to September 1, 2021. He was removed from office as part of a cabinet reshuffle.
