Nigeria’s former Justice Minister and Attorney General of the Federation, Michael Aondoakaa, SAN, has criticised the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for its handling of the investigation of former Kogi State governor, Yahaya Bello.

Speaking on Arise News Channel on Thursday, Aondoakka stated that the EFCC made a fundamental error by including Bello in a charge relating to events predating his tenure as governor.

According to Aondoakka, through legal recourse, Bello sought to enforce his fundamental human rights based on the charge brought against him by the EFCC.

”I think the controversy was unnecessary in case of Yahaya Bello. Because some of the details that are coming up are unnecessary.

”There was an ongoing case with Yahaya Bello to enforce his fundamental human rights. It was based on one particular case, which the EFCC amended a charge and included him. That is charge number 5502022, pending before the federal high court in Abuja.

”At the accusation in that charge, I think there was an error by EFCC. The error was that he was being roped there because he was governor, but they referred 2015. In 2015, the man said, I was not even a governor. I was a governor in 2016.
