On Tuesday, he first appeared before the Kaduna State High Court over a separate charge filed against him by the ICPC.

However, proceedings were stalled due to the absence of the second defendant, leading to an adjournment until April 10, 2026.

He was subsequently taken to the Federal High Court in Kaduna, where his bail application was scheduled to be heard.
