“I’m not someone who predicts the future or foresees outcomes,” Ozekhome stated. “But regardless of the proceedings, El-Rufai must have his right to a fair hearing.

Whether he challenges the indictment in court or participates in the process, fairness demands that he has the chance to defend himself.”
Ozekhome further stressed that any legal process involving allegations with criminal implications must ensure direct involvement of the accused, rather than proxy indictments, to uphold principles of justice.
