ICPC Re-Arraigns Adeyemi on 22 Counts

The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) re-arraigned Adeniyi Adeyemi before the FCT High Court in Abuja on 22 counts involving alleged forgery and impersonation. Adeyemi pleaded not guilty. The fresh case followed the October 12 dismissal of an earlier eight-count charge after an attorney-general’s review found that the FCT High Court, not the Federal High Court, had jurisdiction. The ICPC alleges that Adeyemi forged documents to present the Presidential Foreign Investment Promotion Council (PFIPC) as an official government body, sought more than 27 billion naira for it, and paid two officials to secure benefits.

DRC: Fayulu condemns Prince Epenge’s detention and demands respect for his fundamental rights

Martin Fayulu has condemned the detention of Prince Epenge, Lamuka spokesperson and ADD Congo president, who was arrested Sunday at N’djili airport while preparing to travel to Rome. Epenge was transferred Tuesday to the Kinshasa/Gombe prosecutor’s office after two days at the National Cyber Defense Council and is accused of spreading false rumors about the death of Manassé Lomboto, who was killed during an opposition march on September 15. Fayulu is demanding respect for Epenge’s rights, an independent investigation and accountability without political pressure, and has urged the courts to examine a complaint filed by the C64. Epenge’s passport, seized by the Directorate General of Migration, has not been returned.
