The law was signed into law in January 2022.<\/p>\n<p>However, the Counsel to the EFCC, Mr. Fredrick Dibang maintained that the suit is still within the Jurisdiction of the court, noting that the State law enacted by the state Assembly is contrary to the acts of the National Assembly that establish EFCC.<\/p>\n<p>Dibang said the Assembly passed the law with the intention of frustrating the trial of the lawmakers and the civil servant for the alleged abuse of office and corruption.<\/p>\n<p>The Presiding judge, Justice Adegboyega Adebusoye, however, fixed November 25 for the hearing of the suit after the defendants raised objection to their prosecution by the anti-graft agency.<\/p>\n<p>The EFCC dragged the Speaker, Oleyelogun, and two others to court for alleged misappropriation of N2.4m belonging to the State Assembly, which was meant for seminar, for the lawmakers and civil servants.<\/p>\n<p>Justice Adebusoye fixed the hearing for the objection and counter-objection to November 25.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An Ondo State High Court sitting in Akure has fixed November 25 for the hearing of a suit filed by Speaker of the Ondo House of Assembly, Hon David Oleyeloogun, seeking the disqualification of the suit brought before the Court by the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) over alleged corruption.
