The defendants pleaded not guilty after an official of the court read the charge to them.
Upon their arraignment and their request for bail, Justice Inyang Ekwo admitted them to bail and adopted the terms and conditions attached to the administrative bail earlier granted them by the EFCC.
Justice Ekwo directed the EFCC to transfer terms of the bail to the court’s Registry.
He barred the defendants from travelling outside the country without the permission of the court.
