A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the former minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode has been released again from EFCC custody after about 8 hours of “quiz”.
Adulawonews had earlier reported that the ex-minister was arrested by the anti-graft agency in the court premises over the falsification of a document.
Fani-Kayode and 14 others are standing trial for alleged N3.8b believed to be misappropriated between January and March 2015.
Fani-Kayode had appeared at the court yesterday alongside the former Minister of Finance and a few others who are standing trial over falsified documents.
Reacting through a tweet, Fani-Kayode noted that he was not arrested contrary to media reports.
His words, “ Once again I was invited to the EFCC today. Once again, despite media reports, I was NOT arrested but invited. I got there at 11.00 am and I have just been released. Thanks be to God”.
