A Federal High Court, in Abuja, dismissed the application filed by Ali Ndume, seeking an order to discharge him as Abdulrasheed Maina’s surety after he jumped bail.
In his ruling, the presiding judge, Okon Abang, held that the application filed by Ndume amounted to an abuse of court process, having filed an appeal before the Court of Appeal, Abuja, on the same matter.
Maina, chairman, defunct Pension Reformed Task Team, PRTT, had, around September 2020, jumped bail after he was released from Kuje Correctional Service Centre on July 27, nine months after he was arraigned.
The ex-pension boss was, however, rearrested in the Niger Republic, where he was alleged to have fled to by security forces and produced in court on Dec. 4, 2020.
