Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso has waded into the Mile 12 marketers crisis
which occurred few months back in Lagos. About 40 of the outstanding
72 northerners detained by police were released on bail to the senator
on Monday (yesterday).
During his last visit about 2 weeks ago to Mile 12, Lagos, Kwankwaso
paid the bail out money to the tune of N65,000 per person for all the
72 detainees to secure their release.
