Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission have stormed the Abuja home of a former Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, located in Wuse Zone 4, Federal Capital Territory.
It was gathered that on Wednesday, some armed EFCC personnel were sighted laying siege to the ex-governor’s home on Benghazi Street, Wuse Zone 4, Abuja.
The EFCC had earlier dragged Yahaya Bello, his nephew Ali, one Dauda Sulaiman, and Abdulsalam Hudu before Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court, Abuja, in an amended charge in March 2024 over an alleged eighty four billion naira money laundering.
Meanwhile, the incumbent Governor of Kogi State, Usman Ododo, on Wednesday visited the embattled former governor of the state, Yahaya Bello, amidst a heavy security crackdown on the latter’s Abuja home.
Ododo arrived at Bello’s residence at about 2:30 pm Wednesday, alongside several security operatives and youth supporters protesting against the siege to the former governor’s home.
