JUST IN : Alleged Gun Possession : Court grants Emefiele N20m bail
Justice Nicholas Oweibo released Emefiele on a N20 million bail bond with one surety in the like sum.
The judge made the order following the banker’s “not guilty” to a two-count charge filed against him by the Federal Ministry of Justice.
He rejected the Federal Government’s claim that Emefiele was a flight risk. The judge ruled that the government failed to provide any fact to support its claim.
Emefiele, 61, had filed the application through his team of counsel led by Chief Joseph Daudu, SAN, a former President of the Nigerian Bar Association.
