'Everyone's fav not afraid to say what we are all thinking guy', Chief Femi Fani- Kayode was released in Lagos, over 65 days after his arrest, detention and arraignment by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.
The former minister, who was the spokesman for the Goodluck Jonathan Campaign Organisation, was arrested on May 9, 2016 for allegedly receiving N840m during the build-up to the 2015 presidential election.
His media aide confirmed the development.
Recall that Mr. Jude Ndukwe, the Media Adviser to Fani-Kayode, on Monday, said Fani-Kayode has met all the bail conditions granted him by a Federal High Court in Lagos, last Tuesday.
Fani-Kayode, former Finance Minister, Nenadi Usman and three others charged with money laundering, were granted bail by a Federal High Court in Lagos, in the sum of N250 million.
Ndukwe in a statement stated that Fani-Kayode has met all the conditions for his bail and the relevant documents have been duly filed and submitted at the Federal High Court in Lagos.
He however said Fani-Kayode was yet to be released owing to the delay by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission to verify the filed documents.
