Following the release of rapper Zlatan Ibile on Tuesday evening, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has given reasons why Naira Marley is still in custody.
Zlatan was released alongside Rahman Jago and two others, leaving only Naira Marley in detention.
Tony Orilade, EFCC spokesman, in a statement said that the suspects were released on administrative bail and would soon be charged to court.
He said:
“There is overwhelming evidence against Naira Marley; so we can’t afford to release him on administrative bail like Zlatan and the three others.
“That Zlatan has been released does not mean they have been discharged and acquitted. Naira Marley is still in our custody and will be charged to court soon and we will make the charges known in an official statement soon.”
