Operatives of
the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Tuesday reportedly
raided the Epe residence of the immediate past Governor of Lagos State,
Akinwunmi Ambode.
The EFCC spokesman, Tony
Orilade, who confirmed this to DAILY POST, denied that they were at Ambode’s
residence on a raid, explaining that they are only there for an investigation.
“It is not true, we don’t
raid. Investigation is on-going in respect of the petition we have, that is why
we are here,” he said.
DAILY POST recalls that
Justice Chuka Obiozor of the Federal High Court sitting in Ikoyi, Lagos, had on
Tuesday, ordered the freezing of the sum of N9.9bn belonging to the Lagos State
government but linked to former governor Ambode.
