The charge sheet by the EFCC, accuses Usman who was the Director of the Federation Account and other defendants, Olusegun Akindele, and Gezawa Commodity Market and Exchange Limited of diverting public funds amounting to N109.4bn.

But Justice Adeyemi Ajayi premised the revocation of Usman’s bail on his failure to be punctual to the court room.
