The federal government on Monday arraigned former Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr Mohammed Adoke , on fresh charges of money laundering.
Chief Mike Ozekhome , who argued the bail application of Adoke, prayed the court to grant Adoke bail on self recognizance being a former AGF, pending the hearing of the charges. Similarly, Chief Wole Olanipekun SAN, counsel to the second defendant, aligned with the submissions of Ozekhome to urge the court to grant the second defendant bail.
