The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arraigned former Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello, before the Federal Capital Territory High Court for his alleged involvement in a N110.4 billion fraud.
Bello, who was previously on the run, turned himself in and appeared in court dressed in a white caftan and blue cap. He was accompanied by armed operatives of the EFCC.
The former governor and his two co-defendants, Umar Oricha and Abdulsalami Hudu, face 16-count charges bordering on conspiracy, criminal breach of trust, and possession of unlawfully obtained property.
