Muhammed Audu, son of a former governor of Kogi state, has been arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over alleged fraud.
The EFCC made this known in a series of tweets on Thursday, saying investigations revealed that the suspect used two of his companies, Mediterranean Hotels Limited and Mediterranean Sports, to divert the funds, which he could not account for.
The anti-graft agency said the suspect will soon be charged to court when investigations are concluded.
