ABUJA, Nigeria – The former Senator who represented Kaduna Central Senatorial District, Senator Shehu Sani was earlier today arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission(EFCC).
According to The Nation Newspaper, the voiceferous senator, who was one of the most outspoken lawmaker both inside and outside the senate was arrested for allegedly extorting USD 20,000 from the owner of ASD Motors.
Quoting a source, the newspaper said the Senator was alleged to have collected the $20,000 from the owner of ASD Motors on the grounds that he is very close to the EFCC boss and using his name to collect money from the car dealer.
The newspaper reported that Sani was subsequently granted administrative bail while he refunded the money to the victim.
“He was asked to report but made himself incommunicado. He must have been scamming a lot of people, dropping the name of the EFCC boss”, The Nation said.
