Allegation
The EFCC alleged that Usman Saidu Dakingari, a former Secretary to the State Government and a third defendant received ₦450 million, part of a larger sum kept at a bank, to influence the 2015 general elections.
Outcome / Status
The EFCC arraigned him on 13 counts of conspiracy and money laundering before Justice Sunday Bassey Onu of the Federal High Court, Kebbi, in December 2018. He was remanded, then granted bail. The trial went through repeated adjournments into 2020, including one caused by the absence of defence counsel. We found no verdict. (A separate ICPC case over ₦315 million ended in his discharge and acquittal in the Kebbi State High Court.)
