How Kogi Governor Ododo Smuggled Yahaya Bello Out to evade EFCC arrest

On Wednesday, the current governor of Kogi State, Usman Ododo, assisted the embattled former governor, Yahaya Bello, in evading arrest by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission operatives.

Reports from the former governor’s residence indicate that Ododo arrived with heavy security around 2:30 pm.

Approximately two hours later, at precisely 4:20 pm, Ododo and his convoy departed with Yahaya Bello in the official gubernatorial vehicle.

Ten minutes subsequent to their departure, the EFCC operatives who had been surrounding Bello’s residence withdrew from Benghazi Street, Wuse Zone 4, Abuja.

Following the retreat of the EFCC operatives by about 20 minutes, the police, Department of State Security operatives, Counter Terrorism Unit, and other security personnel guarding Bello’s house also left the premises.

Meanwhile, an EFCC source who also prefers anonymity noted that, “Bello has escaped with the Kogi State Governor, Ododo. Our operatives could not stop the governor.”

It was earlier reported that officers of the Nigeria Police Force and some armed men dressed in black with the inscription “Special Forces,” were preventing EFCC operatives from arresting Bello at his Abuja residence.

EFCC operatives had stormed Bello’s home on Benghazi street, Wuse Zone 4, Abuja, at about 9:30 pm on Wednesday.

However, it was closely observed how EFCC operatives were prevented by some policemen and other armed men guarding the ex-governor, from entering the house
