APC asks EFCC to arrest Atiku
The All Progressives Congress (APC), the country's ruling party, has requested that Atiku Abubakar, the PDP's presidential nominee, be detained on suspicion of corruption by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Additionally, the campaign gave the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC), the Conduct of Conduct Bureau (CCB), and the EFCC a 72-hour deadline to arrest the opposition leader.
Festus Keyamo, the spokesperson for the APC presidential campaign council, requested that the anti-graft agencies detain the former vice president on charges of money laundering, violating the Code of Conduct Act, conspiracy, criminal breach of trust, and misappropriation in a petition dated 16 January.
Mr. Keyamo claims that the campaign is following through on the accusations made by Michael Achimugu, who claimed to be a former PDP candidate's aide.
