The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, today at their Lagos office, grilled a former governor of Zamfara State, Abdulaziz Yari over alleged illegal financial dealings.
The Federal High Court, Abuja, had on January 26, 2021, ordered the final forfeiture of funds belonging to Yari domiciled in Zenith and Polaris Banks.
While $56, 056.75 was lodged in Polaris Bank, N12.9 million, N11.2m, $303m, N217, 388.04 and $311.8m were kept in different Zenith Bank accounts in the name of Yari and his companies.
The judge, Ijeoma Ojukwu, held that the former governor had not shown good cause why the order sought by the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) should not be granted.
