The remanded former chairman of the defunct Pension Reform Task Team, Abdulrasheed Maina, has informed the Federal High Court in Abuja that the Borno South Senator, Ali Ndume, has agreed to stand as s
urety for the bail granted him by the court.
The defendant was granted bail by the court on November 26, 2019, but has remained in detention due to his inability to meet the conditions imposed by the court.Granting the request in his ruling delivered on January 28, 2020, Justice Okon Abang reduced, among others, the bail sum from N1bn to N500m.
The judge, however, in his ruling delivered on April 29, 2020, dismissed the application for the second review of the bail conditions. Gadzama said Ndume acquired the property from one Lawal Ahmed, who recently died from COVID-19 related complications.
