BREAKING: EFCC finally frees Fani Kayode from detention

Former minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode has been set free from the custody of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.

The former Spokesperson of President Goodluck Jonathan campaign was rearrested by EFCC operatives on October 21st on allegations of N26 million money laundering charges.

Fani-Kayode’s lawyer, Wale Balogun had earlier informed the court that the former Minister had been remanded in Kuje prison on the order of Justice John Tsoho of the Abuja division of the court following the continuation of his trial.

But a message on his Twitter handle, @realFFK Monday afternoon suggests that the outspoken politician has regained his freedom after spending 24 days in EFCC detention.

He fulfilled his N50m bail application on Monday, and wrote: “Thanks be to God. After another 24 days in detention, I am finally out.

“Thanks for all your love, prayers and support. We shall prevail.”
