EFCC legal Director, Achile Okoroma told journalists at the Federal High Court premises in Kano that Lamido and his sons couldn’t be produced due to their flight from Abuja being cancelled.
Okoroma however said that “barring any last minute change, Sule Lamido and his sons would be arranged Thursday”.
