“We have declared him wanted, and he is still wanted,” Dele Oyewale, spokesperson for the anti-graft agency, told Peoples Gazette on Thursday.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) says former Governor Yahaya Bello remains wanted, and his arrest is a collective responsibility of all security agencies in Nigeria.

“We have declared him wanted, and he is still wanted,” Dele Oyewale, spokesperson for the anti-graft agency, told Peoples Gazette on Thursday.

When asked why the fugitive former governor had not been arrested since he was declared wanted months ago, Mr Oyewale said, “When a suspected is declared wanted in law enforcement, the responsibility of his arrest is on all the security agencies.”

According to the EFCC official, there are other suspects that the agency has launched a manhunt.

“It is not Yahaya Bello alone. There are so many suspects declared wanted by the EFCC, and we ate on their trail. Until we are done with them, they remain declared wanted,” said the EFCC spokesman.

Mr Oyewale added, “So it is not about him alone. Go to our website, you’ll see so many suspects declared wanted, and they remain in that status until they are arrested.”

In April, the EFCC declared the ex-governor wanted for alleged crimes of stealing N80 billion from Kogi’s treasury.

The declaration came after the agency faced considerable resistance from Mr Bello’s security detail during a previous attempt to arrest him for prosecution.

Stop deceiving yourselves efcc, why not go and catch him yourself if you people are capable.

Nonsense....... You catch yahoo boys without the help of police but to arrest politicians you need to scream online for police assistance

The toothless EFCC should STFU.

You have been monitoring his movement, telling us Bello is at so so place yet you couldn't arrest him.

Stop boring us and get to work

Oloriburuku people

I think say efcc dey carry gun and dem come still get camo uniform, why una dey echo other agency to do una work?

If Una don tire, make una pull uniform

The way they used SWAT style to arrest yahoo boys, they should use same style for Yahaya Bello.
Nonsense and selective justice

Change his name from Yahaya Bello to Yahoo Bello and watch your boys catch him this night during their illegal raids.

Since EFCC is only attracted to yahoo boys now

Apparently they don't know where he is

Civil societies, activists, everyone will remain silent and not make demands that whoever is keeping him should vomit him, but if it is Samoa agreement, we'd start collecting signatures and marching to national assembly.
