Three persons including Senator Eyinnnya Abaribe, who served as surety for the fleeing leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu are to forfeit N100million over their inability to produce Kanu in court.
Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, preceded over by Justice Binta Nyako, order for temporary forfeiture of the N100m bail bond, which each of the sureties signed when they took Kanu on bail in April last year.
Senator Abaribe, a Jewish leaders, Emmanuel Shallon and Tochukwu Uchendu, all stood as surety for Nnamdi Kanu who was granted bail by the court, while being tried for felony offence.
Senator Abaribe and the other surety could not produce the accused as ordered by the court, the court resumed hearing.
In view of the development, Justice Nyako, who had threatened to order the arrest of the two sureties, who were absent in court, later changed her mind and directed the conversion of the bail bond, signed by each of the sureties, to cash and paid into the court.
