Just in: FG places Yahaya Bello on watch list [DOCUMENT]

 


The federal government has placed the former Kogi State governor, Yahaya Bello, on a watch list.


In a circular seen by our reporter on Thursday night, the Nigeria Immigration Service urged security agencies to arrest Bello on sight.


Recall that Bello was declared wanted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Thursday.


The commission also asked all security agencies to place Bello on their watch list to prevent him from leaving the country “through any land, air or sea borders.”


The move, is to prevent the embattled former governor from further evading arrest over charges bothering on money laundering.


The circular reads: “I am directed to inform you that the above named person has been placed on watch list.


“Suffice to mention that the subject is being prosecuted before the Federal High Court Abuja.


“Conspiracy, Breach of Trust and Money Laundering vide letter Ref; CR;3000/EFCC/LS/EGCS.1/TE/V1/279 dated 18t April 2024, if seen at any entry or exit point, he should be arrested and referred to Director of Investigation or contact 08036226329/07039617304 for further action.


“Please accept as always the Comptroller-General warmest regards and esteem.”
