Embattled former Minister of Aviation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, has arrived at the headquarters of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) this morning in Abuja.
Former director of media and publicity of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential campaign organisation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has honoured the invitation of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
The former Minister of Aviation, arrived at the headquarters of the anti-graft agency in Abuja on Monday morning by 9:45am in a police convoy.
He was invited by the anti-graft agency over an alleged N840m he received during the past presidential campaign. The money was said to have emanated from the account of the Central Bank of Nigeria.
The PDP chieftain revealed in Tweets that EFCC operatives had laid a siege to his residence on Friday but later withdrew after almost eight hours.
Officers of the EFCC had visited his Maitama home at about 10:00am local time, inviting him for questioning on Monday, May 9, only to return at midday with armed men, seeking his arrest.
The EFCC said it was carrying out its functions, claiming that Fani-Kayode had a case to answer over the Peoples Democratic Party’s election funds.
