EFCC arrests ex-NNPC boss, Yakubu, Jide Omokore

Reports say operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, have arrested a former Group Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC, Andrew Yakubu.

The anti-graft agency we gathered equally re-arrested an oil magnate, Jide Omokore.

We further gathered that both of them would be charged before Justice Binta Nyako of the Federal High Court, Abuja on a four-count charge of money laundering.

They would be charged along with Victor Briggs, Abiye Memnere, David Mbanefo, Atlantic Energy Brass Development Limited and Atlantic Energy Drilling Concepts Limited joined as other defendants in the suit.
