The Federal Capital Territory (FCT) High Court has remanded Yahaya Bello, former governor of Kogi, in the custody of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
The Federal High Court adjourned to December 10 for a ruling on the bail application by the immediate past Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, and two others.
AFRIPOST had reported that Bello was arraigned on a 16-count charge bordering on alleged money laundering on Wednesday.
The former Kogi governor pleaded not guilty to all the charges.
Earlier during court proceedings, Bello, along with two co-defendants, Umar Oricha and Abdulsalami Hudu, was arraigned before Justice Maryann Anenih at the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory in Maitama.
The charges stem from allegations of their involvement in a N110 billion fraud case.
Bello, who had been elusive until his surrender to the EFCC on Tuesday, made his court appearance at 9:45 a.m., dressed in a white caftan and blue cap.
The charges, listed under case number CR/7781, include conspiracy, criminal breach of trust, and possession of unlawfully acquired property.
