The Federal High Court sitting in Kaduna on Tuesday granted bail to former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, over alleged corruption charges filed against him by the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission.
The court, however, ordered that the former governor remain in the custody of the anti-graft agency pending the fulfilment of the bail conditions.
Trial judge, Justice Rilwanu Aikawa, delivered the ruling after adjourning the matter from April 1 to April 14, 2026, to consider arguments from both the prosecution and defence.
Justice Aikawa admitted El-Rufai to bail in the sum of N200 million with two sureties in like sum, describing the conditions as “strict and extensive.” Punch
