Former Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, stirred excitement at the palace of Ohinoi of Ebiraland while showing off some dance steps.

Naija News reports that in a viral video, Bello was seen alongside his successor, Usman Ododo, who flanked the traditional ruler while dancing to a song chorused by a group of men.

They sang in the Ebira dialect, “God, we thank you for what you have done for us.” 

Meanwhile, Yahaya Bello was recently released from the Kuje Correctional Centre after meeting the bail conditions in the fraud case against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Bello was released after meeting the ₦500 million and other bail conditions slammed against him by the Federal High Court in Abuja.

It would be recalled that the Federal High Court sitting in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), last Friday granted bail of ₦500 million to the former Governor of Kogi State.

The presiding Judge, Emeka Nwite, in his ruling ordered that Bello must produce two sureties in like sum, who must swear to an affidavit of means and must be owners of properties in Abuja.

Also, the High Court in the Federal Capital Territory on Thursday, granted bail to the embattled former Governor in the amount of ₦500 million, requiring two sureties of equivalent value.

Justice Maryann Anenih had previously denied the ex-governor’s bail request on December 10, citing that it was submitted prematurely. The request was however approved yesterday, leading to his release.

The bail conditions included providing three sureties, each owning property in select high-value areas of Abuja, such as Maitama, Guzape, or Asokoro.
