Seeking his transfer from the custody of the Department of the State Service (DSS) to the Kuje Correctional Centre.
Delivering the ruling today Monday, Justice Ekwo held that the FG had raised the issue of incessant jailbreaks in prisons as a major ground to oppose the request for transfer to Kuje.
The judge added that Mamu did not contradict or dispute the averments as required by law.
According to the judge, since the averments were not challenged by Mamu
They are deemed to be facts and facts admitted need no further proof.
The judge subsequently ordered Mamu to remain in DSS custody throughout his trial for the criminal charges against him.
The DSS, on March 21, 2023, arraigned him on 10 counts of terrorism financing, among others but he pleaded not guilty to the charges.
