EFCC RELEASES FORMER GOVERNOR OF ANAMBRA STATE ON BAIL

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), has finally released the detained former Governor of Anambra State, Willie Obiano..

Obiano, who was nabbed by the anti-graft agency a few hours after handing over to the current governor, Charles Soludo last week, was given an administrative bail yesterday evening while his passport was seized as part of the bail condition.

Obiano was arrested last week Thursday at the Lagos Airport while on his way to the United States of America and transferred to the headquarters of the commission in Abuja, where he was accused of mismanaging 5 billion Naira SURE-P money and 37 billion Naira security vote, withdrawn in cash, as well as some inflated contracts.
