The EFCC is prosecuting the former AGoF on a nine-count charge bordering on alleged money laundering to the tune of N868,465,000. When the lawyer asked him if he knows Chief Jerry Nwachukwu, Nwabuoku, who is the 1st defence witness (DW1), responded in affirmative. He is a contractor, a registered contractor in the Ministry of Defence, even before I became director in the ministry,” he said. “My lord, I want the court to discharge and acquit me in respect of this suit,” the ex-AGof said. The anti-graft agency closed its case after calling nine witnesses to establish its case against Nwabuoku.
