The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has revealed why Willie Obiano, the ex- governor of Anambra state was arrested.

Daily Report Nigeria reported earlier that the former governor was arrested in the late hours of Thursday, March 17, by the anti-graft agency at the Lagos International Airport, while trying to leave the country.

This happened a few hours after Obiano handed over power to the new Governor of the Anambra State, Chukwuma Charles Soludo.

Speaking with newsmen, the Public Relations Officer of the EFCC, Wilson Uwajaren confirmed the arrest.

Obiano, according to the commission’s spokesman, has been on the watchlist of the EFCC prior to the transition on Thursday.

He said, “Obiano has been on our watchlist for sometime now. He had immunity as a governor and that is why we could not arrest him before now.

“Today he lost the immunity and was traveling out of the country before we finally arrested him”.
