The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has announced plans to arraign the former Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, before a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja on Thursday, April 18, 2024. This development follows a warrant of arrest issued by the court against Bello and three other suspects, Ali Bello, Dauda Abdulsalam, and Hudu Suliman, on charges related to money laundering amounting to eighty-two billion naira. Dele Oyewale, spokesperson for the EFCC, disclosed this in a press statement on Wednesday, April 17, 2024. He revealed that the charges against Bello and the other suspects include conspiracy to convert illicit funds and aiding in concealing proceeds of unlawful activities. However, the loyalists of the former governor frowned at the move of the anti-crime agency, questioning the credibility of the officers.
