Mohammed Abacha Bella Naija

The federal government today has dropped the the N446.3bn theft charges filed against Mohammed Abacha, son of a ex Head of State, the late General Sani Abacha.

He had been charged with nine counts of stealing in February 2014, Punch reports. 

The prosecution had accused Abacha of unlawfully receiving about N446.3bn allegedly stolen from the government between 1995 and 1998.

The charges have been dismissed on grounds of “fresh facts that just emerged concerning the case.”
