  By Adamu IMAM Bauchi  In a dramatic twist to Bauchi’s anti-corruption drive, the Bauchi State High Court today ordered the immediate remand of the State’s former Accountant-General, Sa’idu Abubakar, in prison custody.

This landmark case follows a formal petition lodged by the Bauchi State Government in August 2025, accusing Abubakar and his alleged accomplices of massive embezzlement of public funds and betrayal of public trust.  The matter was swiftly taken up by the Nigeria Police, culminating in today’s court session.
