Justice James Omotosho, in a ruling, granted conditional bail to Mr Kyari in the sum of N50 million with two sureties in like sum.
Hushpuppi and Imran Juma conned a Qatari businessman into paying $330,000 to fund an “investor’s account” to facilitate a $15 million loan.
The fierce objections come hours ahead of Mr Abbas’ sentencing at 1:30 p.m. on Monday in Los Angeles.
Mr Iweanoge is a top Washington D.C. criminal defence attorney popular among Nigerian suspects charged in Virginia and Maryland.
Mr Abbas’s actions come as his sentencing hearing is slated for September 21.
“His last post, a photograph of a white Rolls Royce Cullinan from June 6, 2020, has over 100,000 comments, many lionizing him, with some posted today.”
“Mr Abbas was not aware of how many individuals were involved in this scheme, neither was he aware of the monetary extent of the scheme.”
Hushpuppi’s record seen by Peoples Gazette as part of his memorandum opposing prosecution’s sentencing recommendations showed he performed well and related well with other inmates.
Ramon Abbas said his role in the indictment of Mr Kyari, which precipitated the downfall of Nigeria’s most-celebrated police officer, also put his family at grave risk in Nigeria.
Hushpuppi’s sentencing was earlier slated for July 11, and earlier on February 14.
