The Economic and Financial Crimes C o m m i s s i o n (EFCC) is set
to invite some former governors for interrogation for alleged money
laundering, embezzlement of public funds and abuse of public office,
investigation has revealed.
New Telegraph gathered from sources in Abuja
that some of the former governors, who just left office, may be needed
to provide answers to “some weighty allegations of corruption” contained
in some petitions pending against them.
The source, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said operatives
had found merit in some of the petitions, hence the decision to invite
them for interrogation.
He added that the EFCC would only invite
suspects for questioning only when its operatives have found merit in
petitions written against them while petitions found to be frivolous are
not acted upon.
When New Telegraph probed further on the identities of
the ex-governors being expected in the days ahead, the source declined
to mention names, saying some of those to be quizzed include a former
South- South governor and another from the North- Central.
