The Chairman South East, APC National Youth Caucus, Engr Emma Uche Adimoha has congratulated the Senate Chief Whip, Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu over his victory at the federal high Court Abuja on Wednesday against the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
The court presided over by Justice Inyang Ekwo had granted the relief sought by Sen. Kalu, former governor of Abia State where he insists he cannot be tried twice over the same offence of financial misappropriation during his tenure as governor of Abia State.
In a congratulatory letter titled, ‘SENATOR ORJI UZOR KALU AND THE HAND OF GOD‘ Engr Emma Uche Adimoha said retrying Sen. Kalu over one allegation will amount to double jeopardy, saying such is strange to the law and in the hand of God.
