A Court of Appeal sitting in Yola, Adamawa State, has acquitted former Adamawa state governor, Bala Ngilari.

The Appeal Court also set aside the ruling of the state High Court which had earlier sentenced Ngilari to five year imprisonment.

Ngilari had earlier been convicted by Justice Ambrose Mamadi for violating due process in procurement of 25 units of vehicles during his brief tenure as Adamawa governor.
