Ngige Attends APC Meeting After Kuje Prison Release Amid Corruption Allegations

Former Anambra State Governor and ex-Minister of Labour, Chris Ngige, made a surprise appearance at an APC caucus meeting in Abuja shortly after being released from Kuje Prison. Ngige faces allegations of corruption, including abuse of office and receiving undue advantages.

The meeting, attended by prominent figures like Bola Ahmed Tinubu, drew attention due to Ngige's presence amidst ongoing legal proceedings. The charges against Ngige involve awarding multiple contracts and receiving gifts worth millions.

The EFCC has granted him bail, and the trial has been adjourned.
