A High Court sitting in the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, on Friday granted former FCT Minister, Bala Mohammed bail in the sum of N500m and two sureties in like sum.

In his ruling, Justice Abubakar Talba held that one of the sureties must be a Senator, while the other must be a director of the Federal Civil Service.

The judge added that both sureties must have landed property in the FCT and show evidence of tax payment in the last three years.

Justice Talba also ordered Mohammed to deposit his passport with the Registrar of the court.

Recall that the judge had on Wednesday remanded the former Minister in Kuje Maximum Prison.

Mohammed was arraigned by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on six counts bordering on abuse of office while he served as Minister of the FCT.

He will now use our money that he looted to bail himself. Shior!

I don't like all these news. Let them bring back all our money. I won't like to tell my children in future that the reason they can't school in Nigeria is because our leaders looted all the money meant for the education sector. I'm Nigerian and wish to do everything in Nigeria.


Let everyone found guilty be made to pay back or have his balls castrated.

It is usually paid to the court as a form of collateral to make the accused avail himself during the trial so he won't disappear till the trial is concluded.
Then if he jumps bail, the money will be forfeited to the govt.

All these polithifians deserved real good jungle justice .... nor be lie o..
wetin sef..

To all the PCM pls check ur dashboard...

If ur leg is showing on ur passport it simply means u'r in stream1...

Acknowledged with thanks.

The 500 million should be investigated. Where did they get that kind of money in this recession.

If Bala Mohammed could be arrested what happens to El Rufai who allocated most of the landed properties in Abuja to his cronies and side chicks? This is really a fight against the opposition

Igbos make una cum defend am na as usual.

500mil bail for a man whose son of about 28 years is the chairman of exotic car association in ABUJA. Riding a Bugatti, Ferrari and a Lamborghini as taxi. SMH. He will arrange his bail soonest and that's the end of Alibaba and the fourty thieves.

Welcone to Nigeria where all we see according to Fela "Government Magic".

Even after recovering, I don't still get how this money is been utilized

500million + 300 million(from kanu bail)= 800 million




I PLEDGE TO NIGERIA MY COUNTRY....

hope all these #500m bail that the courts receive are forfeited to the govt on the long, at least as a way of recovering a part our stolen loots. Because we both know the case will never end.

These government n Efcc are becoming foolish by the day, why keep arresting all these useless Criminals without persecuting any?? Obanikoro, Mohd bala, Ffk, Olisa metuh, Suswam, Lamido n Co are all out n free.... Nigeria is doom while the likes of Amechi, Tinubu, Saraki have been declared saint...

At least, it makes them ineligible for a public office (pending case) as enshrined in the "quostitushun" of Nijeriya.
