The governor who spoke on Thursday, October 9, in Ado-Ekiti after the public presentation of two laws-Ekiti Magistrate Court Law 2014 and Administration of Criminal Justice 2014-by his counterpart from Lagos, Raji Fashola (SAN), said the $9.3m and $5.7m seized by the South African authority under the guise of procuring arms and ammunition to fight insurgency, contravened established rules and guidelines.
