Popular Nigerian musician, Naira Marley is still facing trial and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) called in its second witness to testify against him on Thursday, February 27.

It could be recalled that Naira Marley is facing an 11-count charge bordering on conspiracy, possession of counterfeit cards and fraud.

The EFCC’s second witness who is in the person of Mr Anosike Augustine and a mobile forensic expert with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), recounted how he analysed the contents of an iPhone 11 allegedly retrieved from Naira Marley during the investigation.

In his submission, he revealed to Justice Nicholas Oweibo of the Federal High Court in Lagos that he produced a report of his findings after extracting and analyzing the evidence recovered from the musician’s phone.

When EFCC moved to present the 30-page report, Naira Marley’s counsel and Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Olalekan Ojo objected to the tendering of the document insisting that it was not part of the documents front-loaded to the defence team and he was unaware of its contents.

The objection was sustained as Justice Oweibo subsequently adjourned the case to allow the defence and prosecution team to sort out and reconcile whether the report was front-loaded or not.
