A Federal High Court, Abuja, yesterday, refused to admit Sen. Rochas Okorocha, who is currently in the custody of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), to bail.

Justice Inyang Ekwo, instead, ordered Okorocha, through his lawyer, Ola Olanipekun to put the anti-graft agency on notice.

But Justice Ekwo held that since the matter would be coming up on Monday, May 30, making an order for the release of the lawmaker on bail was unnecessary.The judge, who fixed May 30 for the hearing of the motions, directed the lawyer to put the EFCC on notice.
