On his part, the EFCC counsel, Cosmos Ogwu, said they had come to the end of the road at this level. The defendants were alleged to have collected the sum of N950,000,000, part of the $115,000,000 allegedly distributed by a former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Deizani Allison Madueke for the purpose of influencing the outcome of the 2015 general elections.
