Court orders ex Jigawa gov, Sule Lamido and 2 sons remanded in prison till Sept 28th

A Federal high court sitting in Kano has ordered that
former governor of Jigawa state Sule Lamido and
two of his sons, Aminu and Mustapha be remanded
in Kano Prison till September 28th when their bail
application will be heard. The former governor and
his sons are being accused of collecting bribe
totaling N1.35 billion from government contractors
when he was governor. Picture above shows the
former governor and his sons arriving court this
morning...
At the hearing today, the presiding judge, Justice
Evelyn Anyadike ruled that the former governor, his
sons and one of his aides, Aminu Mustapha be kept
in Kano prison despite a plea from their counsel that
they should be transferred to the EFCC cell in Abuja
or Kano. EFCC counsel had objected to this, claiming
that the cells in both Kano and Abuja are full to
capacity.
