EFCC finally grants Obiano administrative bail

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has granted administrative bail to the immediate past governor of Anambra State, Willie Obiano.

This is coming after the former governor spent some nights in the anti-graft agency detention.

EFCC chairman, Abdulrasheed Bawa, who disclosed this to journalists on Monday in Abuja said the former governor was cooperating with the commission to perfect the bail conditions.

According to him, there was nothing political about the former governor’s arrest.

“There is nothing political about the investigation. You know what the EFCC stands for,” Bawa said.

 “We investigate crimes, we look at people that have committed crimes and we link it up together and then we go to court. That is all we have been doing and that is what we will continue to do.

“We have been accused of a media trial. But we will continue to do our investigation professionally.

“He has been granted bail and we are waiting for him to perfect his bail conditions. He has been cooperating with us and everything is going on well,” he said.
