I, Adah
John Adah, Male, Christian, Nigeria citizen, litigation officer of Festus
Keyamo Chambers, 1, Festus Keyamo Lane, off Adebayo Mokuolu Street, off Gbagada
Expressway behind Newcastle Hotel Anthony, Village do hereby make oath and
state as follows:
1.
That
I am a litigation officer in Festus Keyamo Chambers, whose principal is Festus

virtue of which I am conversant with the facts of this case.
2.
That
I have the consent and authority of the Complainant/Applicant to depose to this
affidavit.
3.
That
I was informed by Festus Keyamo, Esq. and Idris Adamu, Investigating Officer
attached to Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, in our office on 17th
of February 2016 at about 2.00pm and I verily believe him as follows:
i.
That
the 1st Accused person was invited by the complainant on several
occasions to come and answer to the allegation of fraudulent activities leveled
against him which was uncovered during investigation.
ii.
That
the 1st Accused person was charged before this Honourable court to
answer to charges leveled against him when he persistently refused and failed
to honour the several invitations extended to him.
iii.
That
this honourable court also made an order dated the 12th day of
January, 2016 for the service of the said Charge and Summons to compel the
attendance of the 1st Accused
person on the 14th day of January, 2016.

upon becoming aware of the pendency of this proceeding, the 1st

Messrs. Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa & Co. to represent him.
v.
That
as a result of paragraph iv above, Messrs. Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa & Co.

Complainant/Applicant which led to the issuance of a Warrant of Arrest.
vi.
That
on the 14th day of January, 2016 this Honourable Court issued a
Warrant of Arrest for the 1st Accused person.
vii.
That
since the issuance of the warrant of arrest, the 1st Accused person
has absconded and concealed himself from all security forces in the country to
frustrate the execution of the Warrant of Arrest.
viii.
That
rather than present himself to the court, the 1st Accused person engaged
the services of Tayo Oyetibo, SAN who filed a Motion dated 27th day
of January, 2016 to set aside the Warrant of Arrest. The said motion was
dismissed on the 8th day of February, 2016.
ix.
That
since the Order for the arrest of the 1st Accused person, the
combined team of the Nigerian police and the military have been combing the
creeks and the entire nation for the arrest of the 1st Accused
