BEVERLY HILLS, April 13, (THEWILL) – The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Tuesday arrested the former Imo State Governor who is a Legislator in the current National Assembly, Senator Rochas Okorocha.
Officials of the Commission, THEWILL gathered, laid siege to the former Governor’s private office at Nkwerre Street in the Garki area of Abuja and picked him up shortly after he returned from a trip.
EFCC spokesman, Wilson Uwajuren, confirmed the arrest but offered no further details.
However, speculations were rife that Okorocha who had been locked in a battle of wits with his successor, Governor Hope Uzodinma, may be undergoing interrogation for possible money laundering charges bordering on his tenure.
