Yunusa

Justice H. A. Nganjiwa of a Federal High Court sitting in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State, yesterday granted bail to Yunusa Dahiru aka Yellow, the alleged abductor of 14-year-old Ese Oruru, in the sum of N3 million.

Part of the bail conditions is that Dahiru must provide two sureties in like sum and must be resident within the jurisdiction of the court. One of them must be a civil servant of not less than level 12 while the second must be a title holder. Nganjiwa ordered that the suspect be remanded in prison custody pending the perfection of his bail.
The judge said that the sureties must provide tax clearance for the past three years and adjourned the case till April 17. On March 8, the police arraigned Dahiru and slammed him with abduction, kidnapping, unlawful carnal knowledge and sexual exploitation charges. But Dahiru pleaded not guilty to the charges. His counsel, Mr. Kayode Olaoshebikan, who thanked the court for granting Dahiru bail, pledged to meet the conditions.
