Lamido, Sons Transferred To Abuja Prison by sayyid(m): 9:28am On Jul 14, 2015 |
The former governor of Jigawa state, Sule
Lamido, and his sons, have been transferred
from Kano prison to Kuje prison in Abuja,
Premium Times reports.
According to a prison official who spoke to
the media outfit, the former governor and his
sons were taken away from the prison at
about 10am on Monday, July 13, 2015.
He said the former governor and his sons
were moved into the Abuja prison at about
4pm on Monday.
The ex-governor, who is facing corruption
charges, could have been transported to Abuja
by road as there was no sign they were to
travel by air, the source disclosed.
Another source said some of the former
governor’s aides had moved to Abuja in
preparations for a possible bail hearing.
However, Effiong Effiong, Lamido’s counsel,
succeeded in having a vacation judge
assigned to hear the case in Abuja.
Wilson Uwujaren, spokesperson for the EFCC,
however told Premium Times that he did not
have the information about the transfer.
It was gathered that several people trooped to
the Kano prison waiting to see Lamido
unaware of his transfer.
On Wednesday, July, 9, 2015, a federal judge
ordered ex-governor Lamido and his sons be
detained in Kano prison till September 28,
2015, when their bail applications would be
heard.
Shortly after he was remanded in prison
custody together with his sons over money
laundering allegations, Lamido expressed
shock over the court’s decision.
Lamido who is in the prison with two of his
sons; Aminu and Mustapha, claimed that his
case with the anti-corruption body was
politically motivated. Sources: Naij.com news , Premium Time |
