A Federal High Court in Abuja granted the National President of Miyetti Allah, Bello Bodejo, bail amounting to N2 billion in his ongoing trial related to an alleged $2.63 million money laundering case.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) arraigned Bodejo on July 9 with multiple charges involving cash transactions exceeding legal limits.He pleaded not guilty, while the prosecution sought custody, but the defense argued for bail under the Administration of Criminal Justice Act.The court ruled that the offenses were bailable, granting bail with strict conditions including a surety of N2 billion and property documentation.

The EFCC alleged Bodejo accepted cash payments from Sa’idu Abubakar between 2022-2024, violating money laundering laws by bypassing financial institutions.Bodejo denies the allegations, and the case highlights legal battles over financial crimes in Nigeria.
