Ned Nwoko: Abuja courts revokes Jaruma’s bail, orders her re-arrest and remand in Suleja prison

The Upper Area Court, Zuba in Abuja has revoked the bail granted popular aphrodisiac seller, Jaruma. She is facing a four-count charge of ”defamation of character, criminal intimidation, injurious falsehood, and publishing falsehood to incite the public to hate against Prince Ned Nwoko, Regina Daniels’ husband.”

Jaruma was initially granted bail on January 28 after four days in custody. The bail has however been revoked by the presiding judge, Barrister Ismail Abdullahi Jibrin. He ordered that she be rearrested and remanded in Suleja correctional centre until March 17, 2022.

The judge had earlier on stood the case down as none of Jaruma’s lawyers showed up in court. A lawyer who was in the court premises had appealed to the judge to be patient as Jaruma and her lawyers might show up later. After waiting for two hours, the judge in anger revoked her bail and ordered her re-arrest.
