Barring any last-minute changes, the Federal Government will arraign a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Chief Mike Ozekhome, before the Federal Capital Territory High Court in Maitama, Abuja, on Monday, January 26, over alleged fraud involving a property in London, United Kingdom.
The arraignment is scheduled to take place in Courtroom 4, according to a hearing notice reported on Wednesday by The PUNCH.
In the case, Ozekhome is listed as the sole defendant, with the Federal Republic of Nigeria as the plaintiff.
The prosecution will be led by Osuobeni Akponimisingha, Head of the High Profile Prosecution Department of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission.
The notice states that the case “will be transferred from the general cause list to the hearing paper for Monday, the 26th day of January, 2026, at 9:00 a.m.”
It also advises that if either party seeks to postpone the hearing, they must apply to the court promptly and provide evidence if the application is fact-based. Parties seeking to enforce witness attendance are required to give reasonable notice.
Ozekhome faces three counts in the charge filed by the ICPC on January 16.
