The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has confirmed that the immediate-past governor of Anambra State, Willie Obiano, has not been released from detention.
EFCC spokesman, Wilson Uwujaren, disclosed that Obiano was transferred to Abuja earlier today.
Obiano was arrested by the EFCC on Thursday night hours after his handover to the new Anambra governor, Charles Soludo.
The former governor’s arrest occurred hours after his wife was slapped by the widow of the late Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu, Bianca at the inauguration of Charles Soludo as the governor of the state.
