The Federal High Court in Abuja has remanded the alleged Director-General of the Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council, Adeniyi Adeyemi, to Kuje Correctional Centre after he pleaded not guilty to eight charges of conspiracy, forgery, and impersonation. The court proceedings came after the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Lateef Fagbemi (SAN), took over the case from the Nigeria Police Force.
The prosecution, led by Rotimi Oyedepo (SAN), argued that Adeyemi's conduct prior to his arrest warranted remand in custody, citing potential health concerns. The court adjourned the case until October 12, 2026, for further proceedings.
