Abuja Federal High Court on Wednesday remanded the former Minister of Power and Steel, Olu Agunloye, in Kuje prison.
The ex-minister was arraigned by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC over allegations of fraud in the Mambilla Power Project.
Agunloye was brought before the Federal High Court in Abuja on Wednesday, where he pleaded not guilty to the charges read against him.
The judge, however, ordered that the embattled former minister be remanded in pending when bail would be granted.
