The former Governor of Anambra State, Willie Obiano on Thursday met with the former Governor of Ondo State, Olusegun Mimiko and the ex-national chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Victor Umeh.

This is coming after the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) granted Obiano bail after spending six days in their custody.

The anti-graft agency released the former Governor on Wednesday night after meeting his bail condition which saw his passport seized.

Recall that Obiano was arrested on the same day he handed over to the new Governor of the state, Charles Soludo.

Operatives of the anti-graft agency arrested Obiano at Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos.

There were claims that the former governor was planning to jet out to the United States of America before he was arrested.

Obiano was subsequently transferred to the headquarters of EFCC, where he was quizzed for days over alleged mismanagement of N42bn and inflated contract.

The former governor following his release met with Mimiko and Umeh, the detail of their meeting, however, was not disclosed.
