Ngige Attends APC National Caucus Hours After Securing Bail

 

Former Labour Minister, Chris Ngige, secured bail from an FCT High Court earlier today and promptly attended the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Caucus meeting in Abuja.

Ngige, facing an eight-count charge brought by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over alleged abuse of office and acceptance of gifts totaling about N2.2 billion, was present at the gathering presided over by President Bola Tinubu at the State House Conference Centre.

This marks the APC’s first caucus since the election of Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda as national chairman in July.
