Wilson Uwujaren, Spokesman of EFCC, in a statement in Abuja, said the commission was making effort to obtain a certified true copy of the judgment.
“The EFCC today received with shock, the ruling of Justice Rita Ofili-Ajumogobia of the Federal High Court, Lagos, acquitting Fani-kayode.
“The commission is making effort to obtain a certified true copy of the ruling, to enable it to respond appropriately after careful review of the judgment,” he said.
Ofili-Ajumogobia, in the judgement in Lagos on Wednesday, acquitted the former minister of a two-count charge of money laundering preferred against him by the EFCC.
She said the acquittal followed the failure of the prosecution to provide enough evidence linking Fani-Kayode to money laundering.
Fani-Kayode was arraigned by the EFCC for laundering about N100 million during his tenure as Minister of Culture and Tourism and subsequently, Minister of Aviation.
