Maina is standing trial before Justice Okon Abang for alleged money laundering offences.

Maina slumped after the court resumed proceedings in the 12-count charge the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) filed against him and his firm, Common Input Property and Investment Limited.

Maina had on Wednesday secured the permission of the court to enter a no-case-submission after the EFCC closed its case after calling nine witnesses.

However, when the case was called on Thursday, Maina’s lawyer, Mr. Anayo Adibe, told the court that his client would not be able to proceed with his application.

Adibe said he was unable to prepare the no-case-submission owing to the fact that he was not availed with records of proceedings of the court in the matter.

While making a further submission, his client, Maina, slumped beside the dock where the court permitted him to sit.

Some lawyers and officials of the Nigerian Correctional Service quickly rushed to his aid, a development that forced trial Justice Abang to suspend sitting.
