Justice Ibrahim Buba of the Federal High Court, Lagos,
on Monday denied Speaker, Lagos State House of
Assembly, Adeyemi Ikuforiji, bail on self recognition. Instead, he told the Speaker to either produce a N1
billion bail bond within 48 hours, or be held in prison
pending the determination of the corruption case
against him. Ikuforiji was re-arraigned for alleged money
laundering offence, alongside his aide, Oyebode
Atoyebi, before Mr. Buba; after the former judge,
Okechukwu Okeke, retired from the bench. While the case was before Okeke, the Speaker had
enjoyed the privilege of self recognition. Ikuforiji has between now and Wednesday to tender
the said bond or do some time in prison custody. Send your press release/articles/enquiries to:
