Kano central prison officials have on Monday, July 13, transported former Governor of Jigawa state, Sule Lamido, and his sons, Aminu and Mustapha to Abuja.

The transfer to Abuja is in preparation for the bail hearing of the trio by a vacation judge on Tuesday, July 14.

Vanguard reports that prison sources disclosed that they all left the detention facilities for Abuja by 10.00am.

Prison warders reportedly informed those who showed up to visit that Lamido and his sons have been taken to Abuja.
