Legit.ng learnt that the bail bond was put at N100 million for each surety.
The judge presiding over the case, Justice Binta Nyako, also ordered Kanu never to grant any press interview pending the outcome of his trial
He is also expected not to be in a gathering of more than 10 persons
Justice Binta Nyako noted that Kanu's bail will be revoked if any of the orders are flouted.
Meanwhile, the Ekiti state governor, Ayodele Fayose has given reasons for appearing in court for Nnamdi Kanu's trial today, Tuesday, April 25.
Fayose, who wore an Igbo cap to the court, told journalists outside the courtroom that Kanu is a Nigerian who was being treated unjustly for no reason.
The governor said it is unfortunate that many Nigerians are treated in the same way like Kanu.
His words: "This nation belongs to all of us, I have come to identify with the Igbo people. My position remains that Kanu will one day walk into freedom in this our great country."
The governor's presence elicited jubilation from members of the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB) gathered outside the courtroom.
