… Commission denies inducing Dudafa The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Wednesday denied inducing a former Senior Special Assistant to ex-President Gooluck Jonathan on Domestic Affairs, Waripamo-Owei Dudafa, to make a statement. Justice Mohammed Idris of the Federal High Court in Lagos had ordered a trial-within-trial to determine if Dudafa made a voluntary statement to the EFCC. The judge made the order on November 21 after Dudafa, through his lawyer, Gboyega Oyewole, claimed that the commission “induced” him to make the statement. He alleged that his statement to the commission was not made voluntarily. Testifying in the trial-within-trial on Wednesday, an EFCC investigator, Orji Chukwuma and an operative Akeem Lasisi, said Dudafa made his statement voluntarily. The duo said they cautioned the suspect before making his statement, adding that he was not forced to write anything against his will. EFCC arraigned Dudafa on 23-count charge of conspiracy and concealment of crime proceeds.]]>
