The immediate-past governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, has turned himself in to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), amid his ongoing N82 billion money laundering trial.
According to reports, Bello went to the headquarters of the anti-graft Commission with his lawyers on Tuesday morning, following the Supreme Court judgement which dismissed a suit filed by some State governments over the constitutionality of the EFCC.
The former governor drove himself in a black hilux van to the EFCC office with his lawyers.
