Ododo
Visits Bello Amidst Efcc Siege.
Incumbent Governor of Kogi State, Usman Ododo, has
visited the embattled former Governor of the state, Yahaya Bello, amidst a
heavy security crackdown on the latter’s Abuja home.
Ododo arrived at Bello’s residence at about 2:30 pm
Wednesday, alongside several security operatives and youth supporters
protesting against the siege to the former governor’s home.
Our correspondent, who visited the residence Wednesday
afternoon, observed the heavy presence of armed operatives of the Economic and
Financial Crimes Commission, policemen, operatives of the Department of State
Security, Counter Terrorism Unit, and Yahaya Bello’s private security team.
EFCC operatives had stormed Bello’s Abuja home located in
Wuse Zone 4, Federal Capital Territory.
As of press time, our correspondent could not independently
confirm the reason behind the siege on Bello’s home as the spokesperson for the
EFCC, Dele Oyewale, did not respond to inquiries concerning the development.
