The former governors of Plateau and Taraba States, Senator Joshua Dariye and Jolly Nyame have been released from prison.
The former governors and orders who were jailed for misappropriating their states’ resources, were on April 14, 2022, granted pardon by the Council of State, under the leadership of President Buhari.
The decision generated a lot of criticisms from among many Nigerians.
After the pardon, many had expected their immediate release from prison but they were to remain in prison four more months in what officials said had to do with bureaucratic bottle neck.
But on Monday, they were finally freed.
