ICPC Arraigns Former NECO Employee for Certificate Forgery
The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission has arraigned Rose Deffi, a former employee of the National Examination Council, who was dismissed over allegations of certificate forgery.
The trial was first scheduled for May 30, 2024, before Justice G.D. Fwomyon at the Plateau State High Court but was stalled due to the defendant’s absence.

The court ruled that Deffi should be served the charge sheet through substituted means and be produced in court by her lawyer at the next hearing.
On Friday, when the case was called, Deffi, who was present in the court, pleaded not guilty to all seven counts of forgery against her.
In light of her plea, the ICPC counsel O.G. Iwuagwu requested another date for the trial’s commencement while the defence counsel, P.M. Lere did not oppose this but asked the court to consider the bail application for his client.
