The former governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele has been granted bail.
While delivering a ruling on the bail application filed by the former CBN governor, the presiding judge, Olukayode Adeniyi ordered the federal government to release Emefiele to his lawyers.
The court also ordered the lawyers to ensure that Emefiele is produced for arraignment whenever he is needed and that his international passport should be deposited before the court.
The embattled former CBN governor was seen leaving the court immediately after the ruling. It is not yet certain if he left with his lawyers or if he was accompanied by the operatives of the EFCC.
