A Federal High Court, sitting in Lagos has discharged and acquitted former Director-General of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), Patrick Akpobolokemi of an alleged fraud totalling more than N8.5billion brought against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Justice Ayokunle Faji set the defendant free on Monday, while delivering a ruling on a no-case submission filed by he and the other three defendants, in the 22-count charge brought against them.
In his ruling, Justice Faji held that the EFCC failed to establish a prima facie case against Mr Akpobolokemi and one Josephine Otuaga, a staff of NIMASA, meaning there was insufficient evidence.
But, Justice Faji ruled that a former Commander of the Joint Task Force Operation Pulo Shield, Major-General Emmanuel Atewe (rtd), (the second defendant) and a Staff of NIMASA, Kime Engonzu (the third defendant), have to open their defence because they have a case to answer in counts 12 to 22 of the charge.
Mr Akpobolokemi had in his no-case submission filed by his lead counsel, Dr. Joseph Nwobike (SAN) prayed the court for an acquittal without having him present a defence.
He stated that the prosecution, with all its witnesses and evidence tendered while making its case, failed to link him to the alleged crimes.
Mr Akpobolokemi was arraigned before the court alongside Major-General Emmanuel Atewe (rtd), a former Commander of the Joint Task Force Operation Pulo Shield, and two other staff of the agency, Kime Engonzu and Josphine Otuaga.
They are being prosecuted for an amended 22-count charge bordering on conspiracy; conversion; and stealing (by fraudulent conversion).
One of the counts reads: “That you, Patrick Ziadeke Akpobolokemi, Major General Emmanuel Atewe, Kime Engozu, and Josphine Otuaga sometimes in 2014, in Lagos, within the jurisdiction of this Court, with intent to defraud, conspired amongst yourselves to commit an offence to wit: Conversion of the sum of N8,537,586,798.58 property of the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency and you thereby committed an offence contrary to Section 18 (a) of the Money Laundering (Prohibition) Act 2012 and punishable under Section 15 (3) of the same Act.”
They had pleaded “not guilty” to the charges, thereby prompting the commencement of their trial.
Upon conclusion of the prosecution’s case, all the defendants opted for no-case-submission.
Delivering its Ruling, Justice Faji held that none of the witnesses called by the Prosecution led any shred of evidence linking the first defendant, Mr Akpobolokemi and the fourth defendant to the offences they were charged for.
The court held that the prosecution failed to provide any credible evidence linking the 1st Defendant with the commission of the crimes alleged against him in Counts 1-11 of the first amended Charge and/or established a prima facie case against him warranting him to enter his defence.
The court also noted that out of the eleven witnesses fielded by the Complainant, only one witness, (PW 2), gave evidence where the name of the first defendant featured, while other witnesses made it abundantly clear that, they did not know the 1st Defendant and did not have any dealings with him.
“If there is no sufficient evidence linking the accused with the statutory elements and ingredients, a court of trial must as a matter of law discharge him. It has no business searching for evidence that is nowhere and therefore cannot be found.”
