The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) says it will arraign Nasir el-Rufai, former governor of Kaduna state, over alleged money laundering and other offences.
The commission disclosed this in a statement issued on Tuesday by John Okor Odey, head of media and public communication.
It said it will arraign el-Rufai alongside Joel Adoga at the federal high court in Kaduna on March 24, 2026.
The ICPC said the case, marked FHC/KD/73/2026, includes charges of conversion and possession of public property, as well as money laundering.
The commission also filed a separate charge against el-Rufai and Amadu Sule before a Kaduna state high court.
It said the second case, marked KDH/KAD/ICPC/01/26, includes allegations of abuse of office, fraud, intent to commit fraud, and conferring undue advantage.
According to the ICPC, it filed both charges on March 18, 2026.
The commission said the court will fix a date for arraignment in the state high court case.
It added that el-Rufai has been duly served with the charges.
The ICPC also reaffirmed its commitment to due process and the rule of law.
El-Rufai has been in detention since February 19. The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) arrested him.
