The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) will today charge former Jigawa state governor Alhaji Sule Lamido and two of his sons to court in Kano, the commission confirmed yesterday.
EFFC agents arrested Lamido and his sons – Aminu and Mustapha – in Abuja yesterday.
EFCC spokesman Wilson Uwujaren said the Commission rearrested Lamido and his sons over corruption charges.
Uwujaren said they were likely to be arraigned in court today in Kano.
They are expected to be arraigned over alleged financial misappropriation amounting to billions of naira.
Aminu and Mustapha were first arrested in November 2013 in Kano over N10bn fraud and flown to Abuja.
Lamido flew out of the country shortly before the swearing-in of his successor in May, this year.
On his return the former governor on June 15 submitted himself at the Abuja head offices of the EFCC.
