EFCC arrests Bafarawa
WRITTEN BY SAHARA REPORTERS, NEW YORK
WEDNESDAY, 09 DECEMBER 2009 09:44

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission earlier today arrested the former Governor of Sokoto State, Alhaji Attahiru Bafarawa, on allegations of financial corruption.
There are no details regarding how the former governor was arrested but our sources said he was brought to the commission’s headquarters, where he will face interrogation for financial crimes in which 47 bank accounts were used by Bafarawa to siphon off state funds as well as his conduct as Governor of his state from 1999 to 2007.

It was rumoured he won huge sums in a gamble shortly after he left office in 2007.

This is not news.
Madam Waziri and AGF would soon collect their 10% and set the man free. They should stop playing on our colective intelligence.

It is Federal Govt's attack on opposition.Bafarawa has been campaigning against the current govt and has joined the Mega Summit Movement to challenge PDP's domination and rape of democracy.

This attempt will fail,

Yeah, I was going to say exactly that. He has been one of the most serious voices up North and at one point, a potential for the presidency for 2011.
I think its just the current internecine war up North (about Yar Adua's succession) thats claiming its first high profile victim.
