Added: 2026-05-19

[00:00:00]The Federal High Court in Abuja, on Monday, granted bail to former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, in the sum of 100 million naira over charges bordering on alleged breach of national security. Justice Joyce Abdulmalik, while ruling on the bail application, imposed stringent conditions for the former governor's release. The court held that the surety must reside in either the Maitama or Asokoro districts of Abuja, and must deposit the original certificate of occupancy of a landed property with the court registry. The judge further ruled that the surety must be a federal civil servant not below grade level 17, and must provide evidence of salary payments for at least 3 months authenticated by a bank manager within the court's jurisdiction. After a series of phone calls by El-Rufai's son to meet the court bail conditions, and after hours of court rulings, all their efforts to get the condition moved up on him, the DSS finally returned El-Rufai to their custody.
