The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has interrogated former Sokoto State Governor, Aminu Tambuwal, over alleged fraudulent cash withdrawals totalling ₦189 billion.
Tambuwal, who served as governor from 2015 to 2023, reportedly arrived at the EFCC headquarters in Abuja on Monday, where he was taken in for questioning by investigators.
Sources familiar with the matter say the withdrawals are suspected to be in violation of the Money Laundering (Prevention and Prohibition) Act, 2022.
When contacted, EFCC spokesperson Dele Oyewale declined to comment on the development.
