The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, on Friday, granted bail to the immediate past Governor of Kogi State, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, to the tune of N500 million with two sureties in the like sum, News360 Nigeria reports.

The court, in the ruling that was delivered by trial Justice Emeka Nwite, held that the sureties must be owners of landed properties in Abuja.

Aside from directing the sureties to tender the title documents of the properties, which must be verified by the Deputy Chief Registrar of the court, Justice Nwite equally ordered them to swear to an affidavit of means.

According to the court, both the defendant and the sureties must submit their recent passport photographs.

It further ordered the former governor to surrender his international passport and not travel outside the country without permission.

The court held that the defendant should remain at Kuje prison, pending the perfection of the bail conditions.

It subsequently slated February 24 and 28 for the commencement of a full-blown hearing into the 19-count money laundering charge the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, preferred against the defendant.

Bello, who piloted the affairs of Kogi state from 2016 to 2024, had before the ruling pleaded his innocence to his alleged complicity in an N80.2 billion fraud.

Specifically, the EFCC alleged that he used five proxies to acquire choice properties in highbrow areas of Abuja and Dubai.

For this country...just know person.

500mn bail for 80.2bn, yet someone that wrote a book was given 50mn bail.

Nigeria... No wonder they changed the national anthem on reverse mode.

If you have the means by whatever, however way...please and please. Jaapaa ooo.

because even the people that voted APC full UK and Canada currently.

And this man is bent on running the country then handover to his Son or wife.

Nigerians are really enduring...but for how long?.

Yahaya was really brutal. He really oppressed Kogites.

1. Mummy Salome Acheju was burnt to ashes.

2. Promising young undergrad, Daniel was killed simply because he refused to vote for Bello!

3. Many people died because he was paying less than half salary despite increased allocations and bailout funds from Buhari.

4. The whole 21 LGAs, including Lokoja, didn't have access to portable water. Dude cared less.

5. Scores died simply because they couldn't afford common typhoid and malaria medicines.

6. Pensioners and other retirees suffered; some even died without enjoying any single benefit.

7. He did not construct any single-access roads in Kogi East for a whole 8 years.

8. He masterminded Nigeria's ever-bloodiest election, according to International Observers in 2019.

9. While civil servants were languishing in poverty, he was busy displaying his brand new BMW SUV online to pepper 🌶️ Kogites.

10. This guy didn't start or commission any electricity projects in the Kogi East.

11. He was arrogant even to Tinubu. He vehemently refused zoning to the south during the last presidential election. He only started supporting Tinubu as soon as he lost.

12. Despite his poor performance, El Rufai came to Kogi and kneeled down to beg people to vote for him the second time, promising that Yahaya Bello would change; instead, he got worse.

13. Kogi civil servants at some point were displaced. They started to die of hunger. The Nigerian Senate and well-meaning Nigerians contributed to donate two trailers of rice and relief materials to them, but Bello seized the two trailers and allowed his goons to loot the contents while the civil servants died of hunger and lack.

14. When the assassination attempt on Sen. Natasha failed, Yahaya destroyed a federal government road by digging a big gully across the road to stop the lady from reaching her constituency.

15. Under Yahaya's watch, scores were killed in Kogi West during the 2019 election. Dino Melaye and many others had to run for their lives.

16. Under his watch, a strange helicopter was shooting at Kogites in areas where he knew he couldn't rig and nobody would vote for him.

17. Yahaya abused the late Ohinoyi. A reverred man from all across the world. He rubbished the man simply because the old man advised that he treated Kogites well.

Yahaya is a very deadly and dangerous person.

Nigerians need to be careful when dealing with him. He is very brutal and dangerous.

Oh No , according to Sharia laws, l disagree with the Bail, the ex - criminal governor should be stripped naked at kogi stadium 🏟️ and flogged 80 billion lashes of Koboko laden with chilly pepper 🌶️, cut off his 7 fingers and sentence the useless governor to 20 years in jail in Kirikiri prison

The gif below 👇 is for Yayaha the useless stupid criminal

You lots are atimes annoying. Bello deserves bail to enable him defend himself.

What is wrong in denying him bail. Will his stay in kuje change anything.

It's Bellos right to fair hearing and treatment as he remains innocent until proven guilty by a court of competent jurisdiction.

Take your hate and bitterness elsewhere.
