Emefiele is standing trial on a two-count charge bordering on possession of a single barrel shotgun and possession of 123 rounds of live ammunition without licence. He pleaded not guilty to the charge. But, the secret police disobeyed the court order and rearrested Emefiele after the court proceedings same day.
In an ex-parte application, dated July 28, 2023 which was granted by the Court, Emefiele asked the court for “an order of this honourable court granting leave to the defendant/applicant to serve the complainant through and on the office and person of the Director General, Department of State Services, Mr. Yusuf Magaji Bichi, with the ruling/order of court obtained on July 25, 2023.
“Admitting the defendant/applicant to bail and directing his remand in the custody of the Nigerian Correctional Service by substituted means to wit: by publishing same in three national daily newspapers circulating within the jurisdiction of this honourable court and which said service will be deemed as good and proper service on the prosecutor/complainant.”
The groups, therefore, said: “It is on this note that we once again call on President Tinubu and the DSS to release Emefiele as ordered by the Court which will be a birthday gift to him. “We once again wish the CBN Governor a happy birthday and pray God to be with him in all circumstances.”
