The  Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has refuted media reports today that a former Governor of Kogi State, Mr. Yahaya Bello was in its holding facility. The commission said this”is incorrect.”

As contained in a statement signed by Dele Oyewale, Head,  Media and Publicity, “the Commission wishes to state that Bello is not in its custody.”

Oyewale went further: “Bello, already declared wanted by the Commission for alleged N80.2billion money laundering charges, remains wanted with a subsisting warrant for his arrest.”
