Former Governor of Adamawa State, Murtala Nyako, along with his son Abdulaziz and several others, are facing a 37-count charge related to money laundering. The trial, which began in 2015 and has seen multiple judicial reassignments, is ongoing at the Federal High Court in Abuja. The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) alleges that Nyako misappropriated state funds during his tenure from 2007 to 2014 through inflated contracts and other means. Key evidence includes financial records and statements obtained from various companies and banks linked to the defendants. The trial continues with further hearings scheduled for October 2024.
