A former governor of Jigawa, Saminu Turaki, has been arrested by officials of the EFCC.

Turaki is being prosecuted by the EFCC for alleged mismanagement of Jigawa State funds while he was governor.

Premium Times reports that Turaki has been evading court appearance for his prosecution following which the court issued an arrest warrant.

He won’t be released until the date of the next court sitting when he’ll be taken to court, a source said.
