The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has asked the Nigeria customs service to place Ayodele Fayose, outgoing governor of Ekiti, on its watch list.

Fayose, whose tenure ends on October 16, is being investigated by the EFCC for alleged abuse of office, money laundering, among others.

In a letter dated September 12, and addressed to the comptroller-general of customs, the EFCC said Fayose may be planning to flee the country.

“There is a reasonable suspicion suggesting that he may likely leave the country either through the land borders, airports or seaports in order to evade investigation. Hence, you are kindly requested to watch-list him and arrest him,” read the letter signed by Ibrahim Magu, acting chairman of the EFCC.

In its response, the customs instructed all zonal coordinators, area commanders and comptrollers to monitor Fayose.

“Consequently, you are requested to monitor the subject and report to Economic and Financial Crimes Commission through the provided contact details if sighted,” the customs wrote in a letter dated September 14.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) lost the July 2018 governorship election in Ekiti state.

Kayode Fayemi, candidate of the All Progressives Party (APC), defeated Olusola Kolapo to win the election.

I thot it's Nigerian Immigrations responsible for monitoring human movement across borders.

So as governor with immunity, he can't travel out.
Why are they so hellbent on his case?

The idiat just turn the country upside down

This is just silly and shameful. Even if the man is corrupt and has openly condemned the government and the EFCC, it is not in their place as an "independent entity" to retaliate through the same means. .

Good!

He'd be in "sifia" pain very soon.

It's funny how no one is talking about his presidential ambition again despite being the first to declare to run.

*fayose right now*
