Tuesday’s scheduled arraignment of Cletus Ibeto, the chairman of Ibeto Energy Development Company, was again postponed at the Lagos High Court located in Ikeja.
Due to the defendant’s continued failure to appear in court, the arraignment has failed four times.
His legal team, under the direction of Senior Advocate of Nigeria Uche Obi, informed Justice Ismail Ijelu that the office of the Lagos State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice had moved to take over the case’s prosecution, raising a question about legal representation.
Through its attorney, Rotimi Oyedepo (SAN), the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission characterised the action as “an attempt to scuttle the trial”.
According to The PUNCH, the businessman and his companies, Ibeto Energy Development Company and Odoh Holdings Ltd, were charged with ten counts by the anti-graft agency. The charges included allegations of fraud, forgery, conspiracy, and fraudulent use of documents.
Ibeto was previously served with a bench warrant by the court, requiring him to appear in person for his arraignment on Tuesday.
During the Tuesday proceedings, the state’s Attorney-General, Lawal Pedro (SAN), was represented by Dr. Jide Martins, the Lagos State Director of Public Prosecutions. Martins apprised the court of a petition submitted by Robert Clarke’s law firm, another Senior Advocate of Nigeria, asking for a review of the case file and the complete takeover of the case by the Lagos AG.
He said, “I came to notify the court that we received a petition from the defendant in this case, pursuant to Section 211 of the 1999 Constitution, asking the Office of the Attorney General to take over the case. I have written a letter to the honourable court to that effect. The decision has not been made, and that decision can only be made when the AG’s office receives the case file. We’ve sent a letter to the EFCC.”
But reacting, the prosecution counsel, Oyedepo,  said, “This is not a case that the Lagos State Attorney-General can take over because the main counts of the charge are on federal laws.
“Section 211 limits the state AG to the takeover of state offences and his power cannot be extended to Section 174 which involves federal offences.
 “The Attorney-General’s letter to this court was written without hearing from us and the purpose was to shield the defendant from appearing before this court and when he is seized of the whole matter, he would change his mind.”
The counsel also informed the judge that following the bench warrant issued by the court, the EFCC visited the Ikoyi office of the defendant but could not apprehend him.
“We also visited his house up to three times before we heard that he sneaked out of the country. Then they reported the matter to the AGF who invited me to brief him on the facts of the case and after the briefing, he gave the EFCC the go-ahead to proceed.
“A petition against this case by another of the defendant’s lawyers, Ikpeazu dated 15th November, was also sent to the EFFC Chairman stating the grounds of their preliminary objection, which is before the court.
“The EFCC chairman was also briefed by the Investigating Police Officer and myself and after the review, he concluded that it was because of the bench warrant that the defendant did not want to appear before the court.
“By now, six different eminent lawyers have been employed by the defendant showing various steps to scuttle the hearing of this case.”
Ibeto’s attorney, Obi, however, presented a letter from the doctor stating that his client was in the US for treatment of a life-threatening illness.
Due to the circumstances, Justice Ijelu decided to postpone the case to January 29, 2024, in order to resolve the defendant’s representation and prosecution.
“Having considered all submissions made by the lawyers, the court is of the view that the issue of representation by the learned prosecutor on record and that of the AG is an issue and has to be resolved,” the judge ruled.

Bitcoin’s price rallied last week, climbing 12.14% and erasing the losses from a lackluster September. While altcoins largely drove major rallies from July to September, this time the bull run was led by Bitcoin.
Over the same period, major altcoins like Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL) saw more modest gains of 12.90% and 13.24%, respectively.
The key factor in last week’s rally was the US government shutdown, which began at midnight EST on Wednesday. During a shutdown, US government employees stop working, and the government cannot use its budget. This includes federal employee salaries and other government expenditures.
Market participants saw this situation as a significant source of economic uncertainty, believing it would push the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates at its upcoming FOMC meeting in late October.
According to CME Group’s FedWatch Tool, the probability of a US interest rate cut in October was around 89% on September 30. However, after the government shutdown was confirmed late that afternoon, the probability surged to 98%. At that moment, Bitcoin, which had been trading around the $112,000 level, began its rapid ascent.
Weak jobs data also fueled Bitcoin’s bull run. On Wednesday, the US ADP Employment Report for September came in at -32,000, falling well short of the market’s forecast of +50,000. This data supports the view that the US labor market is downturned.
According to FedWatch, the market is now pricing four additional rate cuts by June next year. Since the shutdown began, the US Republican Party has stated that it will lay off additional federal employees during this period.
The move is seen as an attempt to complete the federal employee cuts that President Donald Trump failed to achieve during his administration. If this attempt succeeds, the US unemployment rate, currently at 4.3%, could rise significantly. With non-farm payrolls already weakening, a rise in unemployment could force the Fed to pursue additional rate cuts.
On Friday, Sanae Takaichi was elected president of Japan’s Liberal Democratic Party and will likely become prime minister. She is expected to initiate policies that will weaken the yen.
While her predecessor, Fumio Kishida, had been considering raising interest rates to combat inflation, Takaichi’s policies are expected to lead to an easing of monetary policy. Against this backdrop, Bitcoin’s price briefly surged past $125,500 over the weekend, setting a new all-time high.
In summary, Bitcoin’s price bull run results from market participants quickly acting on their future expectations. They are anticipating that global liquidity will ease further in the near future. However, predicting how market sentiment will change if the US government shutdown continues is difficult.
The US Treasury’s bond auctions on Monday and Tuesday will be the most interesting event of this week. Over the two days, the Treasury will issue $249 billion in short-term bonds. According to past precedents, these auctions will likely proceed despite the shutdown.
This would significantly restrict the market’s surplus liquidity without government spending. Bitcoin’s price has risen by over 10% in just three days. It remains to be seen if it can continue to rally amid a short-term liquidity squeeze.
A number of macro indicators are on the agenda this week. On Monday, the Conference Board’s Employment Trends Index will be released.
Tuesday will bring the New York Fed’s Survey of Consumer Expectations. On Wednesday, the minutes from the September FOMC meeting and a US 10-year Treasury auction are scheduled.
And on Thursday, Fed Chair Jerome Powell is set to speak, along with a US 30-year Treasury auction. Several other Fed officials are also scheduled to give public speeches. However, these events are unlikely to shake the market’s strong expectation of a rate cut in October.
Instead, impromptu government shutdown-related measures from the US Congress could impact the market. The Trump administration’s approach to laying off federal employees could also be a source of volatility. Here’s hoping investors have a profitable week.
