Former Presidential Spokesperson Released On Bail From EFCC Custody

Doyin Okupe, aide to former president Goodluck Jonathan, has been released from custody by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Okupe was arrested by the EFCC last week over allegations of cybercrime and has now been released on bail.
