Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has released Femi Fani-Kayode.
Gatekeepers News reports that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has released the Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, after spending over six hours in their custody.
Fani-Kayode left the EFCC office in Lagos after he was granted bail on self-recognisance.
There were reports that EFCC operatives quizzed Fani-Kayode in connection with fraud – including forgery.
The former minister, however, denied he was arrested, “Just arrived at the George Hotel for dinner. I was never arrested by the EFCC. I was invited, and I flew down to Lagos to see them. I arrived in their office at 2 p.m. and left at 8:30 p.m. I was granted bail on self-recognisance. They were very polite and professional. Thanks be to God.”
Gatekeepers News earlier reported that the anti-graft agency arrested Fani-Kayode.
