  1. Nandago had no signatory rights to Erongo Petroleum accounts

    In a High Court bail appeal, the defence lawyer for Leo Nandago—one of five accused in a multi-million fraud and corruption case involving Namcor—argues that his client had no signatory rights to Erongo Petroleum's accounts and therefore could not have made the N$500,000 transfer alleged by the State. The lawyer contends that power of attorney rested with another accused, Austin Elindi, and that the magistrate failed to properly consider the merits of each case.
