Court Rejects Okorocha's Plea For Bail by God1000(op): 1:32pm On May 27, 2022
A Federal High Court, Abuja, on Friday, refused to admit Sen. Rocha’s Okorocha, who is currently at the EFCC’s custody, to a bail.

Justice Inyang Ekwo, instead, ordered Okorocha, through his lawyer, Ola Olanipekun, SAN, to put the anti-graft agency on notice.

The News Agency of Nigeria !NAN) reports that Olanipekun had, in an ex-parte motion marked FHC/ABJ/CR/28/2022, prayed the court to grant Okorocha bail on liberal terms pending the hearing and determination of motion on notice filed on May 25.

The ex-parte motion was dated and filed May 26.

But Justice Ekwo held that since the matter would be coming up on Monday, May 30, making an order for the release of the lawmaker on bail would be unnecessary

The senior lawyer also hinted that he had also filed a motion on notice, seeking for his client’s bail.

The judge, who fixed May 30 for the hearing of the motions, directed the lawyer to put the EFCC on notice

All those that helped impose this fraudulent and calamity of a government upon us must pay. I just hope the hand of the law reaches all of them irrespective of tribe and religion.

I know this man is a big political thief, but who did he offend that is frustrating his life like this? It is not as if he's a threat to anyone's ambition at any worthy level. The man can't even win a Governorship election in his state even if the constitution permits him to run.

Serves him right.

Despite quoting Koran and speaking Arabic during his declaration, they still reminded him that he isn't one of them.

Well, I have nothing to say other than this man suffered my parents when he was the governor. He literally turned turned them to beggars just because they wanted their pension paid. And yet he wants to be the president?? Maybe he should come and apologize to my father first

I have seen this happen a lot of times, The plan is too keep him incommunicado till the end of Presidential primaries. The guy must be causing serious trouble for this to be happening now. I believe he has a lot of questions to answer but the timing is suspect. The next few days will be interesting. I am beginning to have real respect for the North, those guys know how to play politics. Southerners are still busy insulting and betraying themselves while the north is already executing a plan devised long time ago. Very funny.
