One of the charges read:
That you, Hon.

The accused person pleaded not guilty to all the charges.
The defense counsel then pleaded with the court to admit the accused person to bail as he was already on EFCC administrative bail. He further told the court that apart from the fact that the offence was bailable, the accused person presented himself to the Commission for interrogation. EFCC counsel did not oppose the bail application.
Justice Abba Mohammed granted the accused person bail on self-recognition and ordered that he deposits his international passport with the EFCC and to report to the Commission whenever he is needed. The case was adjourned to February 19, 2013 for trial.
