Sounds of gunshots rend the air as Governor Usman Ododo of Kogi State departed the residence of Yahaya Bello, his predecessor, on Tuesday.
Officials of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) had stormed Bello’s residence to arrest him.
***After hours of being unable to secure their mission, the security operatives had reinforced with backup support from the Police and Department of State Services (DSS).***
Daily Trust understands that they were planning to forcefully arrest him before the arrival of Ododo.
Ododo, who drove into Bello’s compound, departed after a while.
***However, as he was leaving, reports filtered in that Yahaya Bello was in his vehicle, forcing security operatives who had been on standby for hours to open fire.***
