Bayo Onanuga to Yahaya Bello: Submit yourself to EFCC, get a good lawyer

 Bayo Onanuga, special adviser to President Bola Tinubu on
information and strategy, says Yahaya Bello, former governor of Kogi, should
submit himself to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Onanuga’s advice to the former governor was shared on X
after the anti-graft agency declared Bello wanted on Thursday for alleged money
laundering to the tune of N80 billion.

“Yahaya Bello, where will you run to? It’s better you submit
yourself to the EFCC and get a good lawyer,” the presidential aide wrote.

On Wednesday, some EFCC operatives laid siege on Bello’s
Abuja residence in an attempt to arrest him.

However, Usman Ododo, governor of Kogi, arrived at Bello’s
residence and was said to have “rescued” his predecessor.
