Obiano is still being held in our custody, transferred to Abuja – EFCC Spokesman Reveals.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has disputed rumors that it had released Willie Obiano, the state’s immediate past governor.

Wilson Uwujaren, a spokesman for the EFCC, told Punch that the former governor had been moved to Abuja.

The EFCC detained Obiano on Thursday night, hours after he was handed over to Chukwuma Soludo, the new governor of Anambra.

“He’s still with the commission,” says the source. This morning, he was even relocated from Lagos to Abuja,” Uwujaren stated.

Uwujaren, on the other hand, did not say whether the ex-governor and his wife, Ebelechukwu, were arrested together.

Recall that during the inauguration of Prof Charles Soludo as Governor on Thursday, March 17, 2022, a brawl broke out between Willie Obiano’s wife, Ebelechukwu, and Bianca Ojukwu.

In a viral video, Ebelechukwu left her seat to where Bianca was seated and muttered what seemed unpleasant to her ears and she stood up and responded by delivering a ‘hot’ slap to her face.
