A Federal High Court in Abuja has granted bail to former Minister of Aviation, Hadi Sirika, his daughter, and two others in the sum of ₦100 million with two sureties.
Sirika and others are being tried over an alleged ₦2.7bn fraud.
The sureties, according to the court, must have landed properties in Abuja and also responsible citizens.
Also, the sureties must depose to an affidavit of means. The court also restricted the defendants from travelling abroad without its permission.
Justice Oriji ordered that the defendants be remanded in prison custody if they failed to meet their bail conditions.
Recall that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, slammed six six-count charges on the former minister, his daughter, and two others.
