Femi Fani-Kayode is in hot soup as the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission on Tuesday, December 14th, 2021 dragged him before the Special Offences Court in Ikeja, over his alleged procurement of a “fabricated” medical report

He was about 9am marched before Justice O.O Abike-Fadipe by EFCC operatives for possible arraignment.

EFCC claimed that Fani-Kayode procured one Dr Ogieva Oziegbe to issue the fake medical report, which he allegedly tendered in before the Federal High Court in his ongoing money laundering trial.

Femi Fani-Kayode was brought to court by the EFCC on 12 counts.

The charge sheet partly read; “That you Femi Fani-Kayode on or about the 11th day of October, 2021 in Lagos within the jurisdiction of this Honourable Court with intent to mislead the Federal High Court Lagos Judicial Division in charge No. FHC/L/251C/2016 fabricated a documentary evidence titled: MEDICAL REPORT ON OLUFEM! FANI KAYODE 60 YEARS/MALE/HOSP. NO.00345 DATED 11/10/2021 and purported same to have been issued by Kubwa General Hospital.”

It noted that the offence is contrary to and punishable under section 88(1) (a) of the Criminal Law of Lagos State 2015.

EFCC lawyer, Rotimi Oyedepo, therefore, urged the court to take the plea of the defendant.
