A fresh eight-count charge has been filed against him.
He was remanded in the custody of the commission but later given a bail of N200 million which he was not able to fulfill.
The bail sum was later reduced to N25 million.
The EFCC, on June 10, accused the socialite of flouting a court order by moving to Dubai with a new passport.
On June 22, a Lagos court withdrew the bail given him after the controversial socialite’s absence for trial.
