The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has denied reports that the commission arrested Ebelechukwu Obiano, the wife of the immediate past governor of Anambra State, Willie Obiano.
On Thursday evening, reports had emerged that the EFCC arrested and detained the former First Lady of Anambra State over alleged fraud. Reacting to this, EFCC’s spokesman, Wilson Uwujaren, denied the report, saying Mrs Obiano was not in the commission’s custody.
Just last week Ebelechukwu declared interest to contest the Anambra North Senatorial seat in the 2023 elections under the platform of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA).
