Lagos federal high court judge Musa Kakaki on Wednesday denied bail to businessman and social media influencer Afolabi Michael Kazeem, better known as KC Luxury, in connection with alleged cocaine trafficking and money laundering. The court found insufficient evidence to grant bail on medical grounds, as the defence had failed to present a sufficient case.
The judge questioned why, if there was a medical need, there was no medical certificate to support it. Despite Kazeem's counsel urging the court to grant bail for specialised medical treatment, the judge ruled against the application and directed the Ikoyi Custodial Centre to ensure Kazeem had unrestricted access to medical care. The trial was adjourned until November 2, 2026.
