Audu Maikori released on bail by Magistrate court

The Chairman of Chocolate City Boss, Audu Maikori has been released on bail by a Magistrates’ Court in Kaduna

Maikori was first arrested in Lagos on February 17 and later released by the police over his tweets in January in which he alleged that five students of the College of Education, Gidan-Waya, were killed by Fulani herdsmen.

Though the music producer later retracted his claims, saying he was misled by his driver, it was learnt that Governor Nasir el-Rufai was not pacified by his apology as he complained about the tweets to the police authorities, leading to his arrest.

He was subsequently rearrested on Friday and taken to Kaduna where he was arraigned on Monday afternoon.
