Monday, May 9, 2016 for questioning Recall that last Tuesday, Fani-Kayode,
former Finance Minister, Nenadi Usman and three others charged with money
laundering, were granted bail by a Federal High Court in Lagos, in the sum of
N250 million. Ndukwe in a statement sent to Vanguard, stated that Fani-Kayode
has met all the conditions for his bail and the relevant documents have been
duly filed and submitted at the Federal High Court in Lagos.
He however said Fani-Kayode was yet to be
released owing to the delay by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission to
verify the filed documents. The terse statement read: “Kindly be notified that
Chief Femi Fani-Kayode has met all the conditions for his bail and the relevant
documents have been duly filed and submitted at the Federal High Court in
Lagos. “We are now waiting for the EFCC to verify the documents after which he
would be released. “Despite the fact that he has been locked up for the last 62
days, he remains confident, strong, healthy and in very high spirits. He misses
his family very badly, especially his five month old son Aragon, and he looks
forward to coming home to be with his family, friends and loved ones.”
