Dasuki, Yuguda, others to spend Christmas in prison

http://newtelegraphonline.com/dasuki-yuguda-others-spend-christmas-prison/

Former National Security Adviser (NSA), Col. Sambo Dasuki (rtd), immediate past Minister of State for Finance, Ambassador Bashir Yuguda and about five others standing trial for alleged diversion of funds before two different Abuja High Court may spend their Christmas in Kuje Prison. 


This is due to their inability to perfect their bail conditions.
But, a former governor of Sokoto State, Alhaji Attahiru Bafarawa, who was arraigned with them, was yesterday released having perfected his bail condition. 
The court had granted the accused persons bail in the sum of N250 million with two sureties in like sum. The court, however, ordered that the accused persons be remanded in Kuje Prison pending when they will perfect their bail application. As at the close of work yesterday, New Telegraph reliably gathered that only Bafarawa had perfected his bail condition and since released to go home.
