BREAKING: PRODUCE YOURSELF FOR ARRAIGNMENT – APPEAL COURT ORDERS EX-KOGI GOV, YAHAYA BELLO
On Tuesday, the Court of Appeal ordered the immediate past governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, to produce himself for arraignment.
The Court also restrained Bello from taking further steps in the charge unless he is arraigned.
The court further set aside the judgment delivered by the Kogi State High Court.
Bello’s whereabouts have been unknown since the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) attempted to arrest him during a raid from his residence in Abuja, a few months ago.
