Bello was detained after he presented himself at the headquarters of the EFCC in Abuja on Tuesday.

Former Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello has been detained by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.

He was detained on Tuesday after he presented himself at the headquarters of the EFCC in Abuja.

The former governor’s detention was disclosed by EFCC’s Head of Media and Publicity, Dele Oyewale.

Addressing journalists, Oyewale said Bello was arrested by the Commission’s chief security officer.

“It is true that we have him in our custody. The operatives of the Commission arrested him,” Oyewale said.

Bello went to the EFCC headquarters on Tuesday morning with his lawyers to respond to allegations of misappropriation of funds levelled against him, after months of shunning repeated invitations.

He went to the EFCC office with his lawyers.

But hue successor, Governor Usman Ododo of Kogi State, who followed him to the EFCC office few weeks ago, was not in the entourage.

EFCC had on April 18, 2024, declared Bello wanted in connection with an N80.2 billion money laundering charge.
