A Lagos High Court on Monday issued another bench warrant ordering the arrest of former Super Eagles and Bolton Wanderers captain, Austin Jay-Jay Okocha for alleged tax evasion.
The football wizard has repeatedly failed to appear before the court to answer why he allegedly failed to pay his income taxes.
Adedayo Akintoye, the judge, issued the warrant for the arrest of the former Super Eagles captain on January 29 and, after that, adjourned until February 19.
However, on February 19, the prosecution had not carried out the arrest forcing the judge to, again, adjourn the matter till April 15. He ordered the warrant be executed by then.
Prosecution counsel Yusuf Sule told the judge that Okocha was yet to settle out of court, the 2017 income tax evasion charge.
