Some operatives of Nigeria’s anti-graft agency, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), have besieged the residence of the immediate past governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, in Abuja.
Leading reporters gathered that house is located at Benghazi Street, in the Wuse Zone 4 area of Nigeria’s capital city, Abuja.
The EFCC operatives reportedly blocked the roads leading in and out of the street, causing vehicular traffic around the area.
This is happening days after the former governor held a meeting with President Bola Tinubu, at the State House.
“EFCC barricades Bello’ house in Abuja. No movement in the area as EFCC barricaded the house. They are yet to gain access,” a source said.
