Chidi Lloyd, the embattled leader of the Rivers House of Assembly, was granted bail by Justice Latan Nyordee of a Federal High Court, Port Harcourt, southern Nigeria, this morning with the sum of N10 million and three sureties who must have landed properties in the state capital.

Meanwhile, there have been mixed reactions to the bail.
