The Economic And Finance Crimes Commission (EFCC) case against the Washington Based Lawyer, Ephraim Emeka Ugwuonye has been struck out.
Justice Balogun of the Lagos High court discharged and acquited Emeka Ugwuonye from charges of criminal
breach of trust instituted against him by the EFCC for lack of territorial jurisdiction.
The US based Nigerian lawyer, was facing the
criminal charge after he was arrested by the EFCC over charges of
stealing and diverting funds belonging to his client.
This is the email I received today from Emeka Ugwuonye, Esq
"I am
pleased to inform that the Lagos High Court struck out all the charges
filed by the EFCC against me. In doing so, the Court stated that there
was absolutely no merit to those charges and that the entire thing was
an abuse of the court process and that it was waste of everybody's time.
I thank you for your support ".

I don't know who this lawyer is but is there any other collaborating evidence of either his clearance or dismissal of his charges other than his Self serving letter?
