She pleaded not guilty to the charges on June 9, 2026.

The court ordered two sureties, each required to provide a three-year bank statement or proof of fixed deposits worth at least ₦20 million. The trial is set to continue on October 12, 2026.

In a separate case before a Federal High Court in Ikoyi, involving Mrs Ifeyinwa Nonye Okoye, Okoro had refunded ₦24 million prior to the court proceedings and was granted ₦10 million bail in May 2026.
