N4.7bn fraud: Court summons Oyo AG over Ladoja

Justice Mohammed Idris of the Lagos State High Court on Wednesday said he would not hesitate to issue a warrant for the arrest of the Oyo State Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice,  Oluseun Abimbola, should he fail to honour a subpoena issued on him to appear in the criminal trial of a former governor of his state, Rashidi Ladoja.
 
The judge also threatened that he would order the arrest of an official of the Oyo State Ministry of Justice, Yinka Fatoki, who was said to have been served with a court’s summons dated February 20 to produce some documents relevant to Ladoja’s case in court.
 
Ladoja is being prosecuted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission before Justice Idris for an alleged fraud of N4.7bn.
