The Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Abdulrasheed Bawa, was the focus of contempt proceedings, and the Federal Capital Territory High Court has annulled all convictions for contempt.
Following a hearing on a request made by the EFCC Chairman on Thursday, Justice Chizoba Oji cancelled the proceedings.
