It would be recalled that the anti-corrupttion agency had earlier secured a first order to keep the former Director of Media and Publicity of the PDP Presidential Campaign for 14 days after he was detained when he honoured an invitation extended to him.
The new order was handed down by a Lagos State Chief Magistrate, Mrs. Bola Osunsanmi.
The remand order, made on Monday, was in response to an application by the EFCC, praying the magistrate for an order to keep Fani-Kayode in custody pending when he would be arraigned before the proper court upon conclusion of investigation.
EFCC counsel, A.N. Anana, told the magistrate that the order to remand Fani-Kayode was being sought under the provisions of Section 261 of Administration of Criminal Justice Law of Lagos State, 2011.
