Court Refuses to Review Miyetti Allah Leader Bodejo’s N2bn Bail Conditions
Justice Inyang Ekwo said the court may not finish the challenge before vacation and advised the parties to seek a vacation judge.
- The Federal High Court in Abuja on Thursday declined to hear an application by detained Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore National President Bello Bodejo seeking to vary his N2 billion bail conditions.
- On Monday, the court granted Bodejo bail requiring two sureties: one must provide three years of tax clearance and reside within the court's jurisdiction, while the second must own landed property in Abuja valued at N2 billion.
- The EFCC is prosecuting Bodejo for alleged money laundering involving over $2.63 million linked to the Bauchi State Government, including a $100,000 transaction from former Accountant-General Sa'idu Abubakar.
- Justice Ekwo advised both parties to present the application before a vacation judge during the recess; the court adjourned the matter until October 5 for trial commencement.
- Counsel Fatai Erewunmi confirmed the EFCC filed a counter-affidavit opposing the bail variation request, ensuring existing conditions remain unchanged during the judicial break.
