Court reportedly orders Arrest of Former Enugu Governor Nnamani

The Federal High Court in Lagos has ordered the arrest of former Enugu State Governor Chimaroke Nnamani, Premium Times reports.

The presiding judge, Justice Chuka Obiozor, reportedly issued a bench warrant against Nnamani, saying his lawyer had not given a good enough reason as to why his client was absent from proceedings.

Nnamani’s lawyer had reportedly told the court his client had undergone a heart surgery in the US, but the prosecution revealed that the photographs presented to the court were made in 2014.
