Federal Capital Territory High Court grants Emefeile bail

The Federal Capital Territory High Court has admitted the embattled former Central Bank Governor, Godwin Emefiele, to bail.

The court ordered that he should be released to his counsel and must be produced in court when needed.

The presiding judge, Justice Adeniyi, also ordered him to deposit all his travel documents with the court’s registrar.

He held that there should be an end to a prolonged detention.

The court must also not overlook the fact that he has been in detention for 151 days and the Federal Government and the Attorney General of the Federation must abide by court order.

The substantive motion on notice as well as the preliminary objection, were adjourned to November 17, 2023 for hearing.
