The immediate past Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, has again honoured the invitation of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over alleged misappropriation of funds.

A statement by his media office confirmed that the former governor went to the office with his lawyers on Tuesday morning, following the Supreme Court judgment which dismissed states’ case on the constitutionality of the anti-graft agency.

Bello reportedly drove himself in a black hilux to the EFCC office with his lawyers.

THE NATION reports that at the last hearing on November 14, the EFCC had sought for adjournment till November 27 in the fresh case it instituted against Bello, saying that the 30 days window was still running for the summons earlier issued.
