The former governor arrived the court at about 9 a.m. under tight security, drawing attention from supporters, legal observers, and members of the public who gathered early in anticipation of the hearing. Inside the courtroom, proceedings were set to continue with submissions from both the prosecution and the defence team, as of the time of filing the report. Before entering the courtroom, El-Rufai was reportedly heard speaking with an associate about the upcoming convention of the African Democratic Congress (ADC).

In a separate case, the former governor is facing a 10-count charge before the Federal High Court in Kaduna. The charges involve allegations of abuse of office, money laundering, and fraud totaling ₦579.6 million and $1.1 million. A bail hearing in that case is scheduled for April 14.
