John Yahaya Yusufu
Convicted pension thief, John Yahaya Yusufu, who is standing trial for alleged false declaration of assets, Monday slumped in the dock while his trial was in progress before a Federal High Court in Abuja. Soon as the court resumed, Yusufu's lawyer, Mr. Theodore Maiyaki, moved an application seeking bail for the recently convicted pension thief.
The lawyer had told the court that the offence for which his client was standing trial was ordinarily bailable and that the court was empowered by the law to exercise discretion in granting bail to an accused person and urged that the discretion be exercised in his client's favour.
