 Reason I surrendered to EFCC —Yahaya Bello


Yahaya Bello, the immediate past governor of Kogi State, has disclosed the reason behind his decision to finally surrender to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) after previously disregarding multiple invitations over alleged financial misconduct.


In a statement released on Wednesday by his media office, Director Ohiare Michael explained that Bello voluntarily submitted himself to the EFCC out of respect for the rule of law and to demonstrate his support for President Tinubu’s anti-corruption efforts.


The statement read in part, “This decision was made after due consultations with his family, legal team and political allies.


“The former Governor, who has great respect for the rule of law and constituted authority, had, all the while, only sought the enforcement of his fundamental rights to ensure due process.


“The case has been before a competent court of jurisdiction, and Alhaji Yahaya Bello had been duly represented by his legal team at every hearing. It is important for the former Governor to now honour the invitation of the EFCC to clear his name as he has nothing to hide and nothing to fear.


“The former Governor believes firmly in the efforts of the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to place Nigeria on the path of sustainable economic development and supports the fight against corruption in the country.


“It is on record that he was the first Governor of Kogi State to put in place an anti-corruption mechanism to check graft and ensure that the resources of the State work for the people of the State.”
