The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission on Monday arraigned former Senator representing Kaduna Central before a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja.

The anti-graft agency charged the ex-lawmaker with two counts of bribery and advance free fraud.

Recall that the EFCC had arrested SaniΒ on December 31, 2019, for alleged extortion of $20,000 from the owner of ASD Motors.

He was alleged to have collected money from Sani Dauda, owner of ASD Motors, promising to pass it on to Ibrahim Magu, acting chairman of the anti-graft agency.

He also reportedly said he could assist Dauda in influencing the outcome of some cases using his connection with the chief justice of Nigeria and some other judges.
