Wanted ex-Katsina Governor, Shema turns himself in

Two days after he was declared wanted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, former Governor of Katsina State, Ibrahim Shema, has turned himself in.

The wanted former governor we gathered reported to the office of the anti-graft agency in Abuja at about 9:30 a.m on Friday.

It would be recalled that Shema was on Wednesday declared wanted by the anti-graft agency for allegedly diverting the sum of N76bn into his private account when he was governor.

However, former Governor, lambasted the EFCC for declaring him wanted after he honoured earlier invitation.

The ex-governor in a letter addressed to the acting Chairman of the EFCC, Mr. Ibrahim Magu, explained that on getting to the Abuja office of the EFCC, he was informed by the anti-graft agency that the detective in charge of his case was not in town, adding that the commission failed to reschedule before going ahead to declare him wanted.
