He identified Exhibits K series, H series, and L series as accounts documents and statements of accounts for the accounts, (Zenith and Unity Banks), and further stated that he was a core signatory to the accounts.

The witness disclosed that the monies were transferred from Niger State Ministry of Finance accounts to the Niger State Government Security Vote accounts.

The prosecuting counsel, Abdullah Faruk, told the court that one of his witnesses could not make it to the court today because of the security challenges and applied for an adjournment till tomorrow, December 2.

Earlier, the PW 9, Eriba Idiakwu, a relationship manager with Ecobank, brought documents, statements of accounts and certificates of identification, which were tendered and marked as exhibits in respect of a company, MJ Eco project limited.

Justice Aliyu adjourned the matter to tomorrow, December 2, 2021, for the continuation of trial.
