The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), yesterday, addded a fresh angle to the troubles of the immediate past Governor of Anambra State, Willie Obiano, as the commission sealed mansions allegedly traced to him at Ngozika Estate in Awka.

It placed a notice, which reads: ‘EFCC, Keep Off. Under Investigation’ on the wall of an abandoned building traceable to Obiano, a development that followed his release after six days in the commission’s custody.

The EFCC also seized Obiano’s port following his arrest at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport on his way to Houston, United States of America, shortly after handing over to his successor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo on Thursday, March 17, 2022.

He was granted istrative bail, but it took another two days to meet the bail conditions, including provision of two directors of Federal Civil Service, who must have landed property in Maitama or Wuse areas of Abuja and a Senator as sureties.

It was learnt that representative of Anambra North Senatorial District, Stella Oduah  was approached to stand surety for the governor ahead of his release. 

EFCC’s Head of Media and Publicity, Wilson Uwujaren, was quoted as saying that Obiano was arrested for alleged “misappropriation of public funds” including N5 billion Sure-P and N37 billion security votes, which was withdrawn in cash. Part of the funds was also allegedly diverted to finance political activities in the state.     

Obiano was placed on the EFCC’s watch list few months before the expiration of his tenure, just as the commission cautioned that the former governor had questions to answer over alleged sleaze while in office.

Soludo was to make matters worse for his predecessor, when he revealed in an interview on Arise Television that Obiano left a debt of N109 billion for the state, and between N300 and N400 million cash in the state’s treasury.

He must vomit our yam

Media trial, EFCC should go to court if they have any case

They should let the man be.

They should seal everything associated with OBIANO

Inviting those louts to anambra with his Lagos louting template is big enough crime ..

I know people that died in the hands of those louts he stationed every junction smoking igbo and harassing anambrains and funny those idiots are not from anambra

So, he left office and immediately after wants to run off to Houston, United States of America.

Anambrans, was Willie any good?

Bluntguy:
They should let the man be.

Worst governor in history of igboland walahi

Even Stella oduah saved the day..

Same Oduah they insulted...

Obiano has really shown how greedy a man can be.

Looting the state dry with no single road construction.

After governing a state for 8 yrs he wants to go and rest in other civilization with his loot.

So he couldn't build such in his state.

African politicians are thieves and all the know is the appetite to steal public wealth.

Obiano should rather go to court that's only if he has genuine case

Of course Obiano will go to court, it’s just EFCC gra gra

This is not about gra gra, Soludo as a financial management guru, a good auditor must have gone through the handing over reports from Obiano and quickly EFCC if possible to get some funds back.

Though he would be freed but still he would cough out some funds except if you are telling me that Obiano is a saint

Them don start

Obiano is not a saint, no Nigerian politician is. Obiano is an ant and will defend himself. Soludo has no hand in it. It’s just Malami that’s doing all these

The only reason igbos aren't screaming marginalization is because this guy is igala.

Yeye.Person wey he go go scot-free later.

When will EFCC go and arrest peter obi and ouk

They have started!

Afonja disguising as Igbo to tarnish the squeaky clean reputation of the best governor Igbos have ever produced.

Focus more on Ogbomosho and leave we Igbos alone.
