The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has declared a former governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, wanted for offences relating to economic and financial crimes.
This was contained in a notice posted on the commission’s official Facebook page on Thursday.
It will be recalled that the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Prince Lateef Fagbemi, SAN, has earlier asked the immediate past Governor of Kogi State, Alhaji Yahaya Bello, to surrender himself to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
The AGF, in a statement made available to newsmen on Thursday, warned that the anti-graft agency should not be obstructed from performing its lawful duty.
He said the drama confronting the EFCC in the course of its efforts to perform its statutory duty, with respect to the charge it filed against the erstwhile governor, has come to his notice, describing it as a matter of very grave concern.
