Mr Reuben Abati, former spokesman to Mr Goodluck Jonathan, an ex-Nigerian President, has been released by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
His release came barely 24 hours after the EFCC allowed former Minister of State for Defence, Mr Musiliu Obanikoro, to go.
Mr Abati was arrested on October 24, in Abuja and almost spent almost two weeks in the agency’s cell.
He was detained for allegedly taking N50 million from former National Security Adviser (NSA), Mr Sambo Dasuki during the last administration.
He was reportedly released on Friday night, while his bail is expected to be finanlised on Monday next week.
During his stay at the EFCC, he was visited alongside other inmates by Catholic priest, Rev Fr Mathew Kukah.
