VENO NEWS: #80.2billion Palaver: We have not been comfortable with the roles of the governor in this case...EFCC
Date: 20-09-24
The reason why the EFCC rejected the method by which Yahaya Bello reported to the commission was
“Upon realising that Bello came with the governor and some dignitaries, the Executive Chairman directed that no official should attend to him.
“His manner of coming to EFCC was a breach of our protocol. No Nigerian, no matter how highly placed, is expected to come for an invitation in a convoy of vehicles and with a sitting governor.
“To the EFCC, he came with grandeur, which is contrary to our procedures.
“There are stages of documentation which Bello skipped because he was with the governor who has immunity.
“The EFCC also did not invite the governor. So, what was the basis for accompanying Bello to our headquarters in Abuja?
“We have not been comfortable with the roles of the governor in this case.
“After fulfilling all procedures of documentation, Bello was expected to come with his lawyer(s) and not a governor or Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs).
“We can not be intimidated or subject our system to political pollution.
“This made the Executive Chairman of EFCC direct that no official should attend to Bello. He must undergo due process like every invitee.
“The commission was unhappy with the pre-emptive propaganda in the media by Bello’s team, which had created false impressions.
“There was a narration that the ex-governor was already in EFCC’s custody.” A source told The Nation.
