A former Deputy Governor of Edo state, Mr, Lucky Imasuen and a former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Governorship candidate, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu spent their first night in prison custody after they allegedly failed to meet the bail conditions granted them by a Federal High Court.

Others arraigned alongside Imasuen that also spent Thursday night in prison were State Chairman of the PDP, Chief Dan Orbih, a former member of the House of Representatives, Tony Azegbemi and Efe Anthony.

They were arraigned by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), on eight count charges of laundering the sum of N700 million.

The money was believed to be part of the $115m Allison Diezani pilfered from the treasury to fund the 2015 general elections.


They were granted bail of N10 million each, with sureties in like sum who must be in grade level 16 and above and must be house owners, with Certificates of Occupancy (C of O) that should be deposited with the court’s deputy registrar.

Justice P.I Adjokwu remanded in custody pending when they meet their applications for bail despite plea by counsel to Ize-Iyamu, Mr Charles Edosomwan, that they be kept in the custody of the EFCC.

However, a statement by the State Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Mr. Chris Nehikhare, explained that only one of the five could not meet his bail conditions.

Nehikhare said the other four decided to spend the night in prison in solidarity.

“They are all in high spirit and expected to perfect their bail condition today”.

I Trust POI, APC Can't Break His Spirit, He Will Over Come Them Very Soon, But Don't Forget, "What Goes Round Comes Around".

I stand with Pastor Ize Iyamu, We understand the games APC is playing, 2019 our PVC will speak for us.

My respect for these men have just grown. Five of them were given bail conditions, four met theirs the same day while one couldn't. But in mark of solidarity, the other four who were free to go home decided to sleep in the prison with that remaining one.
Thats loyalty to the core
