Chris Ngige, a former minister of labor and employment, was remanded to Kuje Correctional Center by an Abuja High Court on Friday while his bail plea was being considered.
Ngige was charged with N2.2 billion fraud by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Friday.
Ngige, a former governor of Anambra, is charged with eight charges of receiving bribes and committing fraud.
From May 29, 2003, to March 17, 2006, the defendant led the PDP as governor of Anambra.
From 2015 till 2023, he was a minister in the cabinet of the late President Muhammadu Buhari.
Ngige was detained by the EFCC on Wednesday.
He is facing charges for allegedly committing fraud while serving as the Minister of Labor and Employment.
He was charged by the EFCC with giving Cezimo Nigeria Limited, a business owned by his colleague Ezebinwa Charles, seven contracts totaling more than N366 million “for consultancy, training and supply by the Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund (NSITF).”
According to the EFCC, Ngige gave another business owned by Mr. Charles eight contracts totaling more than N583 million.
Additionally, the EFCC said that the defendant gave Nwosu Chukwunwike’s company, Jeff & Xris Limited, eight contracts valued more than N362 million by using his position to grant preferential treatment.
He also gave contracts worth N668 million to Olde English Consolidated Limited and N161 million to Shale Atlantic Intercontinental Services Limited, which are owned by Uzoma Igbonwa.
Section 19 of the Corrupt Practices and Other Related acts Act, 2000 is violated by these acts, according to the EFCC.
Additionally, Ngige was charged by the anti-graft agency with using “his organization, called Senator (Dr Chris Nwabueze Ngige Campaign Organization from Cezimo Nigeria Limited (Zenith Bank Account Number 1011901119)” to obtain payments from NSITF contractors.
Additionally, the EFCC said that Ngige obtained N26 million from Jeff & Xris Limited, N55 million from Zitacom Nigeria Limited, and N38.6 million from Cezimo Nigeria Limited.
Section 17(a) of the Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offenses Act 2000 was violated, according to the EFCC, and this is punishable under section 17(c) of the same Act.
Nonetheless, he entered a not guilty plea to every accusation.
Sylvanus Tahir, SAN, the EFCC’s attorney, asked the court to remand Ngige at Kuje Custodial Centre and requested a trial date.
However, Ngige’s attorney, Patrick Ikwueto, SAN, pointed out that they were only made aware of the arraignment yesterday and were therefore unable to submit an application for bail.
Ikwueto asked the court to grant Ngige conditional bail due to his health.
Additionally, he tried to move for the defendant’s oral bail application based on self-recognition.
Tahir pointed out that an oral and written application could not be submitted to the court.
up addition, he pointed out that Ngige has not yet turned up his international passport, which was a requirement of his prior bail.
However, Ikweto pointed out that the EFCC has been notified by letter that Ngige’s foreign passport was stolen.
Tahir denied having heard of the report.
Justice Maryam Hassan ordered his remand to the Kuje Correctional Center after hearing their arguments.
Justice Hassan postponed the hearing and decision on his bail request until Monday.
