Obiano Pleads Not Guilty to N4bn Money Laundering Allegations

The immediate-past governor of Anambra State, Willie Obiano, has pleaded not guilty to the nine charges of money laundering preferred against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.

The alleged money laundering is to the tune of N4 billion.

He reportedly moved the amount from security votes into different accounts.

The offences were said to have been committed between March 2014 and March 2022.

When the charges were read to him upon his arraignment today, the former governor pleaded not guilty to all nine counts.
