The Court of Appeal has ordered former Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello to present himself for arraignment to face fraud charges.
The Court also restrained Bello from taking further steps to stop the charges unless he is arraigned by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Bello has been evading arrest and refusing to appear in court, attempting to have the case moved to Lokoja, Kogi State, for trial or stalled due to technicalities.
The Court of Appeal's ruling prevents Bello's efforts to delay or relocate the trial, requiring him to appear in court to answer to the fraud charges related to his actions as governor from 2015-2023.
