Operatives of the Economic and Financial
Crimes Commission on Monday morning picked up the President of Masters
Energy Oil and Gas Limited, Mr. Uche Ogah, outside the premises of a
Lagos State Magistrates’ Court in Tinubu, Lagos Island.
Ogah was arrested soon as he stepped out
the court premises after the forgery charges filed against him by the
police were withdrawn.
Ogah, who was declared winner of the
last governorship election in Abia State by Justice Okon Abang of a
Federal High Court in Abuja on June 27, had on June 16 been arraigned by
the police for alleged forgery.
But the police on Monday morning withdrew the charges.
