The former Accountant General of the Federation's (AGF) Ahmed Idris's trial on the alleged 109 billion naira corruption charge at the FCT High Court has been adjourned to March 20.

Idris is being tried alongside three others by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for the alleged diversion of the said money.

During the proceedings, the witness admitted that the former AGF didn’t have a lawyer with him when the anti-graft agency took his statements during the investigation.

The witness informed the court that the anti-graft agency took the statements of the former AGF six times in 2022, and on all of these days, he waived his rights to an attorney as a condition of being granted bail on self-recognition.

The trial judge, Yusuf Halilu, admitted as evidence a video tendered by the counsel for the EFCC, Rotimi Jacobs, which is an interview session with Idris and two other accused persons.

Counsels to the parties in the case later addressed the press.
