Popular Kayanmata seller, Jaruma was on Friday granted bail by an Upper Area Court in the Zuba area of Abuja.
The FCT police command arraigned Jaruma before the court on Monay on alleged defamation of character, false news publication and intimidation of business tycoon, Ned Nwoko, on social media.
Nwoko, who is married to popular actress Regina Daniels, accused Jaruma of defaming him and his wife through her Instagram page.
Judge Ismaila Abdullahi ordered the remand of the aphrodisiac seller at the Suleja Correctional Centre pending the bail hearing on Friday.
Ruling on the bail application, the judge said, “The court did not remand her in custody as a punitive means to penalise the defendant but to make her present and answer to her case. By this, I shall be quick to point out that the charge against the defendant is bailable but not ordinary.
“I hereby grant her bail on the following conditions: That the surety must be a level 12 civil servant working within the FCT. Also, all the parties involved in the case should stay from anything that would be prejudicial to the case.”
The judge adjourned the case till February 23 for hearing.
