Yahaya Bello

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), on Wednesday, dismissed claims that former Kogi Governor, Yahaya Bello, honoured the invitation of the anti-graft agency.

According to the Commission, Bello remains wanted for alleged N80.2billion money laundering charges.

Dele Oyewale, the spokesman of the agency, in a statement on its website stated this amidst several enquiries.

“The Commission wishes to state that Bello is not in its custody. Bello, already declared wanted by the Commission for alleged N80.2billion money laundering charges, remains wanted with a subsisting warrant for his arrest.”
