Former media aide to Atiku Abubakar, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Daniel Bwala, has faulted the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for declaring the immediate past governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, wanted.
Former media aide to Atiku Abubakar, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Daniel Bwala, has faulted the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission for declaring the immediate past governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, wanted.
Atiku's ex-aide made this known via his X account on Friday, in reaction to the anti-graft agency declaring Bello wanted on Thursday following the failed attempt to effect his arrest at his Abuja residence. Reacting to the saga, Bwala opined that the EFCC was playing hide-and-seek with the former governor, as he gave options that could be used to address the situation instead of begging the citizens for his whereabouts.
"You were at his residence to effect arrest - you failed to apply ACJA or better still what you did to Okorocha at his residence. In May 2022, the EFCC officials broke through the roof of Okorocha's house to arrest him, after six hours of laying siege to his house.
