The higher court described the bail conditions of the trial Magistrate Court as "stringent, excessive and unaffordable."

Justice Archibong reduced the conditions from N3m to N200,000 with one surety, a prominent indigene or one doing business within the jurisdiction of the Court.

He held that the surety must produce two passport-sized photographs and swear to affidavit of means and upon fulfillment, be released from the DSS custody.
