By Chico Mies Yahaya Bello, the former Governor of Kogi State, has formally accepted an invitation from the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), as confirmed by his media office on Wednesday, following consultations with family members, legal advisors, and political associates. According to a statement issued by Ohiare Michael, Director of the Yahaya Bello Media Office, the former governor's decision to appear before the anti-corruption agency underscores his commitment to transparency. Bello faces 19 charges related to money laundering amounting to N80.2 billion. Notably, he has sought to enforce his fundamental rights to ensure due process. The former governor has expressed his support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's administration and its anti-corruption initiatives. EFCC Chairman Ola Olukoyede had previously pledged to resign if Bello was not prosecuted, reaffirming the commission's commitment to pursuing the case to its logical conclusion.
By Chico Mies. Tinubu asserted that Nigeria's crude oil output had attained 1.6 million barrels per day, crediting this achievement to the reforms implemented by his administration within the oil sector. Data from the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) suggests that President Bola Tinubu may have conveyed misleading information to the Nigerian populace concerning the nation’s oil production levels. In a speech delivered on August 4, in response to the concerns of the #EndBadGovernance protesters, President Tinubu claimed that Nigeria's crude oil production had attained a level of 1.6 million barrels per day. He further credited this accomplishment to the reforms implemented by his administration within the oil sector. Share this post:
