The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has detained a former Governor of Borno State, Modu Sheriff, over allegations of corruption.
Mr. Sheriff is said to have voluntarily handed himself in Wednesday afternoon.
The spokesperson for the EFCC, Wilson Uwujaren, confirmed that Mr. Sheriff was currently being held by the commission.
PREMIUM TIMES reported how the anti-graft agency had on April 23, moved to declare Mr. Sheriff wanted when he failed to honour its invitations for questioning.
The former governor, was who summoned by the commission to appear, damned the invitation and stayed away.
Although the specific allegations against the former governor are​ unclear at this time, sources said the investigation is related to allegations that parts of the N300billion his administration received from the Federation Account between 2003 and 2011 were not judiciously spent.
The investigation began in 2012 and had been ongoing ever since, a source said.
Mr. Sheriff governed Borno State on the platform of the defunct All Nigeria Peoples Party.
Before then, he was a senator between 1999 and 2003 on the ticket of the same party.
He was a founding member of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, before he defected to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

...tell 'em

A date with justice begins for one of the conmen and terrorism authors that Mr Jonathan befriended and shielded for political expediency.

By the way,it just shows what a presidency and PDP annex the EFCC was under Jonathan.

It began with Nyako,then Sheriff-two Fulanis and tribesmen of Mr Buhari-I hope by the time it crosses to the South South and South East nobody will shout vindictiveness and ethnic attacks!

Forget Sylva,he was Jonathan's easy punchbag for his courage to react to being denied a go at a second term in standing with the APC.He has earned his freedom!
