A group of protesters under the auspices of the APC Loyalists Forum has taken their demand for accountability to the doorstep of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), calling for a thorough investigation into alleged corruption cases against former Zamfara State governor, Bello Matawalle.
Dozens of protesters from Zamfara State converged on the EFCC headquarters on Friday, urging the commission to reopen investigations into Matawalle’s tenure, which was marred by allegations of contract diversion and embezzlement to the tune of N70 billion.
The protesters, armed with placards and a petition, demanded that the EFCC investigate all petitions against Matawalle, including the alleged diversion of funds meant for projects across the state’s local government areas.
