Abuja (Sundiata Post) – Former governor of Jigawa State, Saminu Turaki, has been arrested by the operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, (EFCC).
Turaki is being investigated by the EFCC for alleged mismanagement of the state’s fund while in office as governor of Jigawa State.
The Federal High Court sitting in Dutse had in 2013 issued an arrest warrant following his failure to appear in court to defend himself.
Sundiata Post recalls that Saminu Turaki was governor of Jigawa State from May 29, 1999 to May 29, 2007.
