In a significant legal development, the Federal High Court in Abuja has mandated the detention of former Minister of Power, Saleh Mamman, at Kuje Prison pending the review of his bail application. This directive came shortly after Mamman fainted outside the courtroom, creating a dramatic scene.

Former Minister Of Power, Mamman Saleh.

The court’s decision, delivered by Justice James Omotosho on Thursday, July 11, follows Mamman’s arraignment on a 12-count charge primarily revolving around money laundering allegations. The charges highlight a series of financial improprieties attributed to Mamman’s tenure as a public official.

Justice Omotosho scheduled the hearing for Mamman’s bail application for Friday, July 12. Until then, the judge ordered that Mamman be remanded at the Kuje correctional facility. This directive underscores the severity of the charges and the court’s commitment to ensuring justice is served.

Mamman, visibly distressed and described as unwell by his legal counsel, appeared disheartened as he was led away from the dock. His physical and emotional state seemed to reflect the gravity of the legal battle he is facing.

The courtroom atmosphere was tense, with observers closely monitoring the unfolding events. Mamman’s legal team is expected to argue for his release on bail, while the prosecution will likely emphasize the seriousness of the charges and the potential risks of granting bail.

This case continues to attract considerable attention, reflecting broader concerns about corruption and accountability in public office. The upcoming bail hearing promises to be another pivotal moment in this high-profile case.
