Bayo Onanuga, spokesperson for President Bola Tinubu, has called on former Kogi State governor Yahaya Bello to surrender to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). Onanuga emphasized that Bello has nowhere to escape to.
This statement comes in the wake of the EFCC declaring Bello wanted for an alleged financial crime amounting to N80.2 billion. The anti-corruption agency has urged anyone with pertinent information regarding Bello’s whereabouts to contact either the EFCC or the police.
According to reports, the declaration of Bello as wanted follows an ongoing dispute between him and the EFCC. Taking to his X handle, Onanuga reiterated that Bello should turn himself in to the EFCC and seek legal representation.
He said: “Yahaya Bello, where will you run to? It’s better you submit yourself to the EFCC and get a good lawyer.”
