Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, the senator representing Kogi Central senatorial district has urged the former governor of the state, Yahaya Bello to honour the invitation by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission regarding an alleged N80.2 billion alleged fraud.
Senator Akpoti-Uduaghan, however, emphasised the need for the EFCC to investigate other corrupt public officials to avoid the impression that their actions against Bello were merely a witch-hunt.She said in a statement, “I was surprised to hear that Yahaya Bello evaded the invitation from the EFCC, despite having served as Kogi’s former chief security officer.
“It’s a well-known fact that ‘he who comes into equity must come with clean hands’. As such, I advise him to honour the invitation and clear his name while he still has the chance.
