Second Judge Withdraws From NBA President’s N1.4bn Case
Usoro was first arraigned before Justice Muslim Hassan on a 10-count charge. He pleaded not guilty. Justice Hassan later withdrew from the case.
Others charged with Usoro are Akwa Ibom State Commissioner for Finance, Nsikan Nkan; Accountant-General, Mfon Udomah; Attorney-General, Uwemedimo Nwoko and Margaret Ukpe, said to be at large. Also named in the charge is Governor Emmanuel Udom, “currently constitutionally immune from prosecution.”
Usoro was to be re-arraigned before Justice Obiozor, but the judge recused himself for personal reasons. “For personal reasons, I hereby disqualify myself from handling the case. I hereby return this file to the Chief Judge for reassignment to another judge,” Justice Obiozor ruled.
