Former Governor of Jigawa State was shocked beyond words yesterday when a Federal High court sitting in Kano asked that the former Governor and his two sons who were accused of fraud be remanded in prison till the next court sitting which will come up on September 28 which will automatically make him spend two months and a half in prison without bail.
As the court rose, the Deputy Chief Registrar of the Federal High Court, Mr Solomon Akpedah ushered him and his two sons into a waiting van which will take them to the Kano central prison, the former Governor exclaimed: “You mean I am now a prisoner”?
The Deputy Chief Registrar, however tried to calm him down saying “No Sir, you are not a prisoner”, as they were all made to enter the van.
