Justice Taiwo Taiwo of the Federal High Court sitting in Ado-Ekiti on Monday, fixed Dec. 2 for judgment on the freezing of Gov. Ayo Fayose’s Zenith Bank accounts by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), according to the Vanguard.
Taiwo’s order followed the adoption of written addresses and other evidence by parties involved in the suit.
Recall that Gov. Fayose’s two bank accounts domiciled with Zenith Bank Plc in Ado-Ekiti, were on June 20, frozen by the EFCC. Fayose, through his lawyer, Mike Ozekhome, approached the court for an order ordering EFCC, the first respondent, and Zenith Bank, second respondent, to immediately lift the freeze order on the accounts.
