“I am aware that the account known as the Director BNC account was created on the instructions of the National Security Coordinator for operational purposes of the Bureau of National Communications,” he told the court. “I put it to you that your designation of the Coordinator’s account-NSC, as a public account or State BNC account is erroneous,” he said. “I disagree because the head of Finance of the Bureau of National Communications listed accounts operated by the Bureau of National Communications which included the Director BNC account at Fidelity Bank.” Meanwhile, the pace of the trial has drawn the court’s attention after the fourth prosecution witness spent six weeks under cross-examination. The prolonged proceedings mean the prosecution is unlikely to close its case within the timeline it had initially anticipated.
