The anti-graft agency sued the former minister along with former Yobe Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Chairman, Abbagana Tata; Mohammed Kadai, Alhaji Hassan Ibn Jaks and Muhammad Mamu, all chieftains of the party, before the court for the same offence. The court, presided by Justice Isa Hamadashin, granted N50 million bail to the defendants with two sureties each, who must either be businessmen or civil servants who must be at least a director. He said: “The sureties must be resident within the court’s jurisdiction and must possess landed property in Damaturu. “The defendants are to deposit their passports and not allowed to travel outside the country without permission of the court.” The EFCC presented a seven-count charge of money laundering, saying the offence was contrary to and punishable under Sections 16(1)(d) and 16(2)(b) of the money laundering prohibition act 2011 (as amended). They were remanded in EFCC custody until the determination of application for their bail on Tuesday.]]>
