A federal high court sitting in Kaduna has
remanded Ramalan Yero, a former governor of the state, in prison.
Nuhu Wya, a former minister;
Abubakar Gaya-Haruna, a former chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
in Kaduna; and Hamza Ishaq, a former secretary to the Kaduna state government,
were also sent to prison.
The court remanded the quartet
after they were arraigned by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission
(EFCC) on Thursday.
They were arraigned over their
roles in the disbursement of N750 million campaign fund for the PDP during the
2015 general election.
They had been reporting to the
Kaduna zonal office of the EFCC for the past two months in line with the
procedure for investigations.
On Wednesday, the commission
detained them ahead of the arraignment.
“The case is coming up tomorrow;
so I can confirm to you that the former governor is here with us and he will be
arraigned at the courts with the three others,” an EFCC source revealed.
