Justice John Tsoho has, on Friday, revealed that part of the N35 million found in Justice Sylvester Ngwuta’s residence is missing.
This was declared at the resumption of the trial at the Federal High Court in Abuja.
The DSS through one of its investigators, John Utazi, has declared that the agency found N35,358,000, £35, 0915 (Pound Sterling), $319,096 (United States Dollars), R50 (South Africa Rand), €280 Euros, 380 United Arab Emirates Dirhams and 420 Gambian Dalasis.
