El-Rufai's prolonged detention had sparked outrage, with many groups and individuals calling on the agency to charge him to court or release him.
In a statement on Monday, John Okor Odey, ICPC spokesman, said El-Rufai would be arraigned at a Federal High Court in Kaduna, on Tuesday.
"The suit with number FHC/KD/73/2026 has charges ranging from conversion of and possession of public property, to money laundering.
"Similarly, another charge, number KDH/KAD/ICPC/01/26, against Malam Nasir El-Rufa'i and one Amadu Sule (LEDA), has also been filed before a Kaduna State High Court in the Kaduna Judicial Division.
"The charges in the State High Court case range from abuse of office, fraud, and intent to commit fraud to conferring undue advantage, among others.
"Both charges were filed by the ICPC on the 18th of March, 2026.
"The date of arraignment in the State High Court will be communicated at the appropriate time as determined by the Court."
The ICPC said El-Rufa'i has been duly served.
