Fani kayode wants out of court settlement in n26m scam probe

It appears you're referring to a recent news article. Fani-Kayode, a former Minister of Aviation, is allegedly involved in a N26 million scam and is seeking an out-of-court settlement.

For those who may not be familiar, Fani-Kayode is a Nigerian politician and lawyer who has been involved in various controversies throughout his career. In this particular case, he is accused of embezzling N26 million meant for the campaign of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in 2015.

According to reports, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has been investigating Fani-Kayode for several years, and he has now requested an out-of-court settlement to avoid a trial. The EFCC has reportedly rejected his offer, insisting that the case should be heard in court.

It's worth noting that Fani-Kayode has denied any wrongdoing and has claimed that the allegations against him are politically motivated. However, the EFCC has presented evidence suggesting that he misappropriated the funds meant for the PDP campaign.

The case is ongoing, and it remains to be seen whether Fani-Kayode will be able to reach a settlement with the EFCC or if the matter will proceed to trial.
