Justice Nganjiwa had admitted Yunusa to bail on stringent conditions of N3 million and two sureties in like sum, resident within the jurisdiction of the court.

The bail conditions also stipulated that the two sureties must submit their three years tax clearance receipts and that the defence counsel must sign an undertaking that the accused would not jump bail.

Investigations indicated that the defence team and Dahiru family have been battling to meet the bail conditions so that Yunusa can leave the Okaka Prison before the April 19 adjourned date, Sunnews online reports…

Frantic efforts to meet the bail conditions have been largely unsuccessful as there is nobody willing to sign the bail bond.

At the Okaka Prison where he is being remanded, Yunusa, who is now emaciated is said to be deeply worried over failure of his family to meet the bail conditions after the court admitted him to bail.
