The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has filed
fresh charges against James Nolan, a British national, over his
involvement in the Process and Industrial Development (P&ID)
“contract scam”.
The anti-graft agency had earlier filed 16 charges against
Nolan. But on Thursday, the charges were raised from 16 to 32.
On October 21, Nolan alongside Adam Quinn, another British
national who is at large and two firms in which they are said to be
directors – Goidel Resources Limited, and ICIL Limited, were
arraigned by the EFCC on a 16-count charge bordering on money
laundering.
At the resumed trial on Thursday, Ekele Iheanacho, EFCC’s
counsel told the court that the anti-graft agency filed the amended
charge on November 20.
The defendant pleaded not guilty to the amended 32-count charges
and a plea of not guilty was entered for the two companies. The
amended charge includes allegations of tax evasion and failure to
submit tax returns.
The prosecution also called its first witness, Adewale
Agunbiade, an account officer with Guarantee Trust Bank, Abuja, who
handled the opening of accounts for Goidel Resources Ltd and ICIL
Limited.
The arraignment of the two British nationals is coming weeks
after two P&ID directors were convicted over the deal.
P&ID, an Irish engineering company, had secured a $9.6
billion award against Nigeria following the non-execution of a
20-year gas and supply processing agreement (GSPA) the company had
with the federal government.
