The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has conclude plans to arraign former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, on new charges of fraud on November 10.
The Head, Media and Publicity of the EFCC, Wilson Uwujaren, made the disclosure in Abuja on Tuesday.
According to Uwujaren, the EFCC had already served the former minister with court processes.
He, however, did not give further details.
Chief Fani-Kayode, a former Director of Media and Publicity of the PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation, was re-arrested last Friday by EFCC operatives while emerging from a Federal High Court room in Lagos, where he is standing trial alongside a former Minister of Finance, Senator Nenandi Usman; one Danjuma Yusuf and a company, Joint Trust Dimension Nigeria Ltd.Â
The three are facing a 17-count charge of unlawful retention, unlawful use and unlawful payment of money to the tune of about N4.9 billion, a charge they denied.Â
