The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has granted ex-Anambra Governor Willie Obiano administrative bail after spending four nights in custody.

EFCC chairman, Abdulrasheed Bawa, who disclosed this to journalists on today in Abuja, said Obiano was cooperating with the commission to perfect the bail conditions.

Bawa refuted reports claiming Obiano’s arrest and investigation was politically motivated. “There is nothing political about the investigation. You know what the EFCC stands for,” Bawa said.

“We investigate crimes, we look at people that have committed crimes and we link it up together and then we go to court. That is all we have been doing and that is what we will continue to do.

The EFCC last November placed the former Governor on its watchlist.
