Justice Joseph Oyewole of a Lagos High Court sitting in Ikeja, yesterday ordered that notorious fraudster Fred Ajudua be remanded in prison over a fraud charge filed against him by Economic and Financial Crimes Commission ( EFCC) since 2003.

Fred Ajudua, has been standing trial before the court over an alleged fraud of $1.69m but has refused to attend the trial since four years ago after been granted bail by the trial judge.

The Judge issued a warrant for his arrest since then but police authorities has not been able to produce him in court since then prompting an unending adjournments in the matter.

Fraud is something that is sort of like a hobby amongst our politicians. They don't see it as something bad at all.
