EFCC seizes Obiano’s passport, as Anambra ex-Gov finally regains freedom

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has finally released Willie Obiano, former governor of Anambra State.

Obiano was nabbed by the anti-graft agency a few hours after handing over to the current governor, Charles Soludo last week. He was given an administrative bail on Wednesday evening.

His passport was also seized by the EFCC as part of his bail condition.

Recall that Obiano was nabbed on Thursday at the Lagos Airport while on his way to the United States of America.

The former governor was subsequently transferred to the headquarters of the commission, where he was quizzed for days over alleged mismanagement of N5 billion Sure-P money, N37 billion security vote, withdrawn in cash, as well as some inflated contracts.
