EFCC Grants Former Anambra Gov, Obiano Bail

The immediate past Governor of Anambra State, Willie Obiano has been granted bail by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

The development was disclosed by EFCC Chairman, Abdulrasheed Bawa while speaking with newsmen on Monday.

Bawa addressed journalists in Abuja on the sideline of the 5th Annual General Assembly (AGA) of the Network of Anti-Corruption Institutions in West Africa (NACIMA).

He, however, stated that Obiano is yet to perfect his bail condition and he is still in the custody of the commission.

Recall that the former Governor was arrested by the anti-graft agency last Thursday at Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos.

There were reports that Obiano was on his way to the United States of America after handing over to the new Governor of the state, Charles Soludo.

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