Justice Okon Abang of a Federal High Court in Abuja has granted bail to the Borno South Senator, Ali Ndume, detained in prison since Monday for standing as surety for Abdulrasheed Maina, former head of a pension team believed to have jumped bail.
In a ruling on Friday, the judge said he chose to grant the senator bail based on his record of good behaviour before the court.
He said he granted bail to the senator pending the hearing and determination of Ndume’s appeal filed at the Court of Appeal to challenge Monday’s order sending him to jail for his inability to produce the fleeing Maina.
He ordered the senator to produce one surety who must be a resident of Abuja and present evidence of ownership of property anywhere in Abuja.
