The Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Olanipekun Olukoyede, has affirmed his commitment to ensure that the prosecution of former Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello, is drawn to a logical conclusion else he’d resign his appointment.
Olukoyede, while discussing with press men at the EFCC Headquarters in Abuja on Tuesday also vowed that all those who obstructed the arrest of the former governor would be brought to book.
Blasting the former Kogi State Governor, Olanipekun said he’d rather resign than not seeing Yahaya Bello’s alleged corruption case come to an end.
He also recounted how he placed a call directly to the former Governor personally as a show of respect for him to come to the commission and answer to the charges but he refused to come asking that the agency come to his village instead.
The embattled former governor of Kogi State reportedly withdrew $720,000 from the government account to a Bureau de Change to pay for his child’s school fees in advance.
