El Rufai to remain in ICPC custody as court shifts bail ruling to June

Former Kaduna State governor Nasir Ahmad El Rufai will remain in the custody of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) after a Kaduna State High Court adjourned ruling on his bail application to the first week of June. Justice Darius Khobo gave the ruling on Tuesday during the resumed hearing of El Rufai’s trial on an amended nine count charge bordering on alleged fraud, abuse of office and corruption. The ICPC had earlier reviewed the case and left the former governor as the sole defendant in the matter. Proceedings focused on arguments for and against granting bail, with prosecutors opposing the application on the grounds that El Rufai could interfere with ongoing investigations if released. The court agreed to defer its decision and ordered that he be remanded in ICPC custody pending the determination of the […]

El Rufai Arrives Kaduna Court For Resumed Bail Hearing

Former Kaduna State governor Nasir El Rufai has arrived at the Federal High Court in Kaduna for the continuation of the hearing on his bail application. He was driven into the court premises at about 9am under tight security provided by police and Department of State Services operatives. Today’s sitting follows an earlier adjournment after the prosecution filed a counter affidavit opposing his bail request. The development had left El Rufai’s lawyers asking for more time to study the new documents, prompting the judge to shift the matter to Wednesday. El Rufai remains in the custody of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission as he faces multiple corruption related charges. The case has attracted heavy public interest, with access to parts of the court complex now restricted due to heightened security measures.

Sirika Denies ₦100bn Nigeria Air Scam, Says Only ₦3bn Released

Former Aviation Minister Hadi Sirika has dismissed claims that the Nigeria Air project under former President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration was a ₦100 billion scam, insisting the initiative was conceived with good intentions and due process. Speaking on Channels Television’s Morning Brief on Tuesday, Sirika described the reports as misleading. “It is a lie that I spent ₦100 billion. The total budget for the national carrier was ₦5 billion, the total amount released was ₦3 billion, and I left the ministry with over ₦1 billion,” he said. The former minister explained that Nigeria Air was structured as a public-private partnership (PPP) and regulated by the Infrastructure Concession Regulatory Commission (ICRC), which participated actively in the process and issued necessary certificates. The controversial project, launched shortly before Buhari left office, has since come under scrutiny, with Sirika facing trial for alleged corruption […]
