Former Katsina State Governor Ibrahim Shema who was declared wanted
by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has turned himself in to
the anti-graft agency on Friday.
Shema’s spokesperson, who
confirmed the development said that his
Shema “went to submit himself to the EFCC even though the agency has not been fair to him in handling his case.
“He’s a law abiding citizen who has absolutely nothing to fear,” the spokesperson said.
Shema
was declared wanted on Wednesday for “criminal conspiracy, inflation of
contract, abuse of office, diversion of funds and embezzlement running
into billions of naira”.
The former governor, however, denied the
allegations, accusing his successor, Governor Bello Masari of sending
the EFCC after him.
