The charges, which are all in relation to the N3billion recovered from his house in Kaduna on February 3, 2017, are bordering on fraud and false declaration of assets against him.
In one of the charges filed against the former NNPC boss, the EFCC accused him of failing to declare the money when he filled his Declaration of Assets form at the EFCC in 2015.
The ex-NNPC boss, who was arrested by the EFCC in Kano State on February 8, 2017 and is currently been detained at a facility of the anti-graft agency in Abuja, will be arraigned on Thursday before Justice Ahmed Mohammed.

However, the ex-NNPC GMD has filed a N1billion suit against the EFCC admitting to owning the recovered funds and fighting for his human right.
The case is also under Justice Ahmed Mohammed of the Federal High Court, Abuja.
