Change, to pay his child\u2019s school fees in advance, adding that such grand larceny in a poor State like Kogi can&#8217;t be overlooked.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA sitting governor, because he knows he\u2019s going, and moved money directly from government to bureau D. Change, used it to pay the child\u2019s school fees in advance in dollars; the total is over 720,000 in anticipation that he was going to leave government house,\u201d said the EFCC boss.<\/p>\n<p>He added, \u201cIn a poor state like Kogi State, and you want me to close my eyes to that under the guise that I am being used? Used by whom at this stage of my life?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Olukayode said he inherited Bello\u2019s alleged fraud case but he wanted to pursue the matter to a logical conclusion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI assumed office here and inherited the case; I didn\u2019t initiate it. But I called for the case file and said there are issues here,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need the EFCC and this institution to survive. So many people, we have wiped tears off their eyes, people that they have swindled in their millions,\u201d said Olukoyede.<\/p>\n<p>Within Nigeria reported last Wednesday that officers of the EFCC, alongside armed security personnel, stormed Bello\u2019s Abuja home, blocking both entrances to his residence at Benghazi Street, Wuse Zone 4, at about 9:00 a.m.<\/p>\n<p>However, the commission could not apprehend Bello as he was able to wriggle out of the situation with the help of the incumbent governor, Usman Ododo, arrived at the scene and took him away a few hours later.<\/p>\n<p>Bello absconded trial at the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court, and the counsel for the EFCC, Kemi Phinro, informed the court that Mr Bello\u2019s absence in court was a strategy to frustrate his hearing.<\/p>\n<p>However, the High Court on Tuesday ordered the lawyers of the EFCC to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2024\/04\/23\/breaking-court-orders-efcc-to-serve-yahaya-bello-letter-of-fraud-charges\/\">serve Bello<\/a> the letter of the charges against him through his counsel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Olukayode said such grand larceny in a poor State like Kogi can&#8217;t be overlooked.
