The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Tuesday grilled a former governor of Ebonyi State, Martin Elechi.
Elechi, who arrived at the Wuse, Abuja office of the commission at 10am along with some of his former commissioners, was accused of misappropriating public funds while in office.
The former governor, who left office on May 29, after a second term, could not be quizzed while in office by the commission because he had constitutional immunity against prosecution.
The anti-graft agency had on January 29, 2015 questioned the former governor’s son, Nnanna, on allegations of money laundering and embezzlement.
The EFCC spokesman, Wilson Uwujaren, confirmed that Elechi was being interrogated following allegations of misappropriation of public funds.
