The Federal High Court in Abuja has granted bail to Arinze Nwogba, who is accused of impersonating the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) Registrar. Justice Salim Ibrahim ruled that the crime is bailable and not a capital offence, setting N50 million bail with two sureties, one of whom must be a federal civil servant not below Grade Level 14, both residing in the Federal Capital Territory.
The court also required both the defendant and sureties to submit affidavits of means and tax clearance certificates for the last two years, as well as their National Identification slips. The case has been adjourned until October 19 for trial to commence. Nwogba is facing six counts of impersonation, which violates the Cybercrimes Act 2015 as amended in 2024.
