The spokesperson for the FCT Command of the Nigeria Correctional Service (NCoS), Adamu Duza, confirmed the development in a statement on Friday evening.

Duza further disclosed that the Controller of NCoS FCT, Ajibogun Olatubosun, was present to oversee Bello’s release, ensuring that all necessary protocols were followed to the letter.

 

It will be recalled that Justice Emeka Nwite of the Federal High Court in Abuja, on December 14, ordered the remand of the politician in Kuje Correctional Centre, pending the perfection of the bail conditions granted to him.
