Sule Lamido Smiling After Court Granted Him Bail In Abuja

  I told you guys that ex-Governor Sule Lamido and his sons would not be in that prison sell for two months as ordered by a court in Kano, and that is how the saga has played out within just few days.  

A Federal High Court in Abuja, on Tuesday, granted him bail on self-recognition and also granted his two sons bail, who are all standing trial from alleged money laundering.
Lamido, his sons, Mustapha and Aminu, and one Abubakar Wada, were arraigned on a 24-count charge of laundering N1.35billion belonging to the State when he was governor.
They were initially arraigned by the EFCC before Justice Evelyn Anyadike of the Federal High Court, Kano, who remanded them in prison without hearing their application for bail. The application for bail was transferred to Abuja for determination.
Ruling on the matter, Justice Gabriel Kolawole ordered Lamido to surrender all his travelling documents to the court’s Deputy Chief Registrar.
He also granted bail to Mustapha and Aminu, and their alleged accomplice, Wada, each in the sum of N25m and two sureties.
– in Nigeria once a political “criminal” is granted bail, the case will most likely die one way or the other.
