Alhassan Ado Doguwa, the majority leader of the House of Representatives, who is being tried on five counts, was granted bail on Monday by a federal high court in Kano State.

Ruling on the application, Justice Muhammad granted the application with N500m and two reliable sureties in like sum.

The court said the sureties shall be First Class Emir and any Senior officer in Civil Service.

Justice Muhammad similarly ordered Doguwa to drop his International Passport to Court Registry pending the trial.

Doguwa was earlier arraigned before a Senior Magistrate court by the Kano State Commissioner of Police and was later remanded in prison till March 7, 2023.

The bail conditions are very strict.

The people will soon stop handing this type of wicked people to police men.

APC hitman doguwa.

Well he can afford it. it's just N50 million naira.

How do you expect a man that murdered Funsho Williams to jail his colleague?

D

A time is coming when Nigerians will decend on this Judges, e go reach everybody

wow

Why grant bail to someone accused of such a serious crime??!

I doubt they would have granted this to a regular or average citizen!

When Obi was governor of Anambra state, he made Anambra the second London and everybody in Anambra became rich, people started running from other countries in the world to Anambra and all of them too became rich, Obi is a perfect leader, that is why all of you must vote for Obi.

Can he perfect the bail conditions?

The man should be sentenced to 300 years imprisonment

Hmmm

That's too small, they should have made it 1billion.

He will definitely go unpunished just like those that murdered Deborah. He practices religion of peace.

Politics
