Jude Onwuegbuzie, the presiding judge, also granted an order for the arrest of Bashir Nura Alkali, a permanent secretary in the ministry.

The court order followed an application by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) after the defendants failed to appear for their scheduled arraignment on Thursday.
