The EFCC had in suit No. FHC/L/20C/2025, filed 13-count charges against Otudeko, former First Bank Managing Director Olabisi Onasanya, former Honeywell board member Soji Akintayo, and Anchorage Leisure Limited.

The defendants were accused of conspiring to fraudulently obtain N12.3bn from First Bank of Nigeria under the guise of credit facilities for V-TECH Dynamic Links Ltd. and Stallion Nigeria Ltd.

At the court proceedings, EFCC counsel, Rotimi Oyedepo, told Justice Chukwujekwu Aneke that the matter had been amicably resolved between the nominal complainant, First Bank, and the first defendant, Otudeko.

Oyedepo said, “The parties have reached a full and final settlement.
“First Bank, the nominal complainant, has formally withdrawn its complaint. The funds at the heart of the matter have been fully repaid, and there is no further interest in pursuing the charge.
“In the interest of justice and to prevent abuse of the court process, the Attorney General of the Federation, having reviewed the facts and the full recovery of the disputed funds, decided to discontinue the prosecution.”
