Attempted murder: Fani-Kayode’s ex-wife, Precious Chikwendu others to be re-arraigned tomorrow


 A Federal High Court, Abuja, yesterday, fixed Friday, April 29, for re-arraignment of Precious Chikwendu, on allegation of attempted murder of her former husband, a former aviation Minister, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, and children.

Chikwendu, alongside others, will be re-arraigned before Justice Inyang Ekwo on a 14-count charge. Others are Emmanuel Anakan (first defendant), Prisca Chikwendu (third defendant) and Osakwe Azubuike (fourth defendant), while others are said to be at large.

The defendants were earlier arraigned before the court on February 14 on 13 counts.  Justice Ekwo adjourned the matter shortly after the police prosecutor, John Ijagbemi, applied for the amended charge to be read to the defendants for them to take their plea.

But the judge said that the re-arraignment would not go on yesterday and adjourned till April 29 for the defendants to take their plea.
