Alleged N1b fraud: I am ready for trial, says ex-Governor Shema

Shema
A former Governor of Katsina State, Ibrahim Shema ,yesterday said he is ready for trial on the alleged N1billion fraud case against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission( EFCC).
He faulted a botched attempt to abduct him allegedly by some agents of the
Katsina State government.
Shema, in a statement by his Head of Media Team, Mr. Oluwabusola Olawale, said the failed abduction showed that his life is in danger.
The statement said:  “We are saying it for the umpteenth time that Shema is not afraid of court trial. He has submitted himself to the court and he is ready to defend himself in an atmosphere of fair hearing, justice and rule of law.
“We are calling on the international community and well-meaning Nigerians to call Governor Aminu Bello Masari to order on his use of state and federal institutions for political intimidation and harassment, before Masari and his aides, through desperation, truncate democratic institutions in Nigeria.
