Dahiru, the alleged abductor of Ese Oruru, was on Monday, granted bail
in the sum of N3 million by the Federal High Court in Yenagoa.
Dahiru is also required to provide two sureties in like sum and who must be resident within the jurisdiction of the court, while one must be a civil servant of not less than level 12 while the second must be a title holder.
Ruling on the bail application, Justice H.A. Nganjiwa ordered that the suspect be remanded in prison custody pending the perfection of his bail.
The judge further said that the sureties must provide tax clearance for the past three years and adjourned the case to April 17.
Dahiru was on March 8 charged with abduction, kidnapping, unlawful carnal knowledge and sexual exploitation by the police.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that Dahiru had pleaded not guilty to the charges.
The counsel to Dahiru, Mr Kayode Olaoshebikan, who thanked the court for granting the bail, pledged to work to meet the conditions.
The judge is expected to rule on the application of the prosecution to obtain the evidence of Oruru in camera on the adjourned date.
