Former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emefiele, was granted bail by the Court after meeting the stipulated conditions.
Arriving at the Lagos High Court, Ikeja in the custody of Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) operatives, Emefiele was later released to return home following the court proceedings.
Justice Rahman Oshodi presided over the bail application, setting the bail amount at N50 million with two sureties of similar sum.
Shortly after bail was granted, the trial commenced, with the EFCC calling its first prosecution witness.
