The Federal High Court in Abuja has granted bail to the suspended Dean of the Faculty of Law at the University of Calabar, Cyril Ndifon, in the sum of N250 million on temporary bail to enable him go for a glaucoma surgery.
VerseNews reports that Justice James Omotosho made the order following an oral application by Ndifon’s counsel, Okon Efut (SAN), seeking permission from the court for bail.
Efut had, on Monday, informed the court that Ndifon had been scheduled for the eye surgery on Thursday, January 11.
The senior lawyer had appealed to the court to admit his client to bail to enable him to go for the operation for him to be able to stand his trial.
Ruling on Wednesday, Justice Omotosho admitted Professor Ndifon to bail in the sum of N250 million with a surety, who must swear to an affidavit of means and deposit his or her travel passport with the court registry.
The judge also ordered that the bail would take effect from Wednesday, January 10 to 25 when the bail application filed by the lawyer would be heard.
The matter was consequently adjourned until January 25 and 26 for continuation of trial and hearing of bail application
