Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, have arrested the Director-General of the Energy Commission of Nigeria, Dr Mustapha Abdullahi, over alleged money l@undering involving more than N500 billion.
The arrest reportedly took place in Abuja on Wednesday, shortly after the conviction of former Minister of Power, Saleh Mamman, in connection with a N33.8 billion fr@ud case.
According to sources, EFCC investigators are currently examining financial transactions linked to the alleged fr@ud. A senior source disclosed that Abdullahi is being interrogated at the EFCC headquarters in Abuja and may remain in custody while investigations continue.
Attempts to get an official statement from the anti-graft agency were unsuccessful, as EFCC spokesperson, Dele Oyewale, could not be reached for comments at the time of filing the report.
