Listening to their pleas, the magistrate, Mabel Segun-Bello, granted one of the suspects, a N7m bail, noting that the law is clear about a citizen’s right to liberty.

“Bail is granted to allow the accused attend trial. Where it is perceived that the accused may jump bail, he may be denied,” Segun-Bello said.
