DR. JOHN ABEBE MEETS BAIL CONDITIONS AS F.C.T HIGH COURT ADJOURNS PROCEEDINGS FOR HEARING:
The Honourable Justice Fashola of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, sitting at Jabi, Abuja, granted bail to Dr. John Abebe of Joje Fertility Centre Limited in the charge brought against them by the Inspector General of Police.
At the proceedings on March 11, 2026, Dr. John Abebe and Joje Fertility Centre Limited were arraigned and they pleaded not guilty to the three counts charge. Following which the Counsel to Dr. John Abebe, Marvin Omorogbe,Esq moved the application for bail and urged the Court to admit the 1st Defendant to bail on very liberal terms. In its ruling, the Honourable Court admitted Dr. John Abebe to bail. As at the time of this report, Dr. Abebe has met the bail conditions and he is back home with his family.
It will be recalled that a certain Mr. Hassan Turaki had petitioned the Nigeria Police Force claiming that Dr. Abebe disclosed his wife’s medical report in a correspondence to Dr. Abebe’s lawyer. However, the management of Joje Abebe Fertility Centre Ltd had in a public statement denied all allegations and described the petition and the resulting charge as a smear campaign aimed at tarnishing Dr. Abebe’s image following over 30 years of excellent medical practice.
The case has been adjourned for the prosecution to open its case.
