Justice Inyang Ekwo of the Federal High Court in Abuja on Wednesday granted bail to the immediate past governor of Anambra State, Willie Obiano.
The judge gave orders that the former governor should be restricted to the court jurisdiction and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission to deposit the defendant’s travel documents with the court registrar while the Nigerian Immigration Service should also be notified of the development.
The prosecution counsel, Slyvanus Tahir, had prayed the court to remand the former governor.
Justice Ekwo, however, subsequently adjourned the case till March 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th for continuation of trial.
