The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Tuesday quizzed the former Akwa Ibom State Governor, Udom Emmanuel, for alleged N700 billion fraud, Channels Television reports.
Sources in the EFCC told the TV station that Emmanuel was detained after he honoured the commission’s invitation to defend himself on the allegations of funds diversion.
