EFCC Detains Anyim Over N780m Aviation Ministry Fund

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has detained a former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Anyim Pius Anyim, in connection with the ongoing probe of a former Minister of Aviation, Senator Stella Oduah.

Anyim was grilled for several hours on Sunday in connection with the fund which was traced to a company in which he was a director.

The detention of the former SGF is coming days after Oduah was named in the Pandora Papers as one of 10 Nigerians hiding their wealth in tax havens.

The EFCC is believed to have commenced a probe of Oduah and others named in the report.
