Operatives of Nigeria’s anti-graft agency, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Tuesday evening reportedly arrested a former Imo Governor, Senator Rochas Okorocha.

“Officials of the Commission laid siege to the former Governor’s private office at Nkwerre Street in Garki area of Abuja and picked him up shortly after he returned from a trip,” according to report in The Nation.

It quotes EFCC spokesman, Wilson Uwajuren, as confirming the arrest.

“He however could not give reasons for the action,” the paper says.
