A Federal High Court sitting in Kaduna, presided over by Justice Z.B Abubakar has rejected an application made by the former Governor of Kaduna State, Ramalan Yero, seeking a return of his International Passport.

The ex-governor, in an earlier application made through his counsel, Yunus Ustaz, urged the court to release his International Passport which will expire by September, 2020.

Counsel to the EFCC, J.A Ojobane, in his argument, urged the court not to consider the application saying that there was no justification for granting the prayers of the defendant. He reminded the court the submission of the Passport in question was part of the conditions upon which bail was granted the defendant.
