EFCC Opens Up On Raiding Bola Tinubu’s Home

Meanwhile, the EFCC on Sunday denied raiding the home of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Naija News gathered that reports had emerged earlier claiming that operatives of the anti-graft agency had raided the home of Tinubu and recovered N400 billion.

But in a swift denial in a statement on Sunday, the EFCC described the report as false news.

In a statement signed by the commission Head, Media & Publicity, Wilson Uwujaren said: “The attention of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has been drawn to a report circulating in the social media, claiming that operatives of the Commission raided the home of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, standard-bearer of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the forthcoming presidential elections and recovered a humongous sum of N400billion.

“The Commission wishes to state that no such operation was carried out by the EFCC. The public is enjoined to disregard the report as fake news.”
