Consequently, the NDLEA prosecutor, Aliyu Abubakar, while requesting the court to fix a trial date, urged the court to remand him in prison custody pending his trial.
The defendant’s lawyers, Benson Ndakara and Viviane Ekwegh, pleaded with the court to admit him to bail on liberal terms, as they filed an application for his bail and a copy of the application had been served on the prosecutor
The presiding judge, Justice Hadizat Rabiu-Shagari, while adjourning the matter till September 28, 2017 for ruling on the bail application, ordered that the accused officer be remanded in prison custody.
