The Federal High Court in Lagos has ordered Oba Otudeko to enter a plea to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission’s charges against him.
Justice Chukwujekwu Aneke gave the order on Monday.
Recall that the EFCC had filed a 13-count indictment against him and three others for alleged N30 billion loan fraud.
At the hearing, the judge stated that he must enter his plea before an application challenging the court’s jurisdiction over the case may be resolved.
Justice Aneke then adjourned the case until May 8.
