What implications do you think this N2 billion bail grant for Bello Bodejo has on public trust in our judicial system?

True, such a hefty bail sum might make people question if justice is really equal for everyone.

Setting N2bn bail with sureties like expensive property feels out of reach for most defendants and strains the idea of equal justice.

I understand high bail deters flight risk, but imposing N2 billion seems more of a headline grab than a fair legal measure.

Make sure your three-year Abuja tax clearance certificate and property valuation documents meet the court's requirements before bail application.
