Breaking: EFCC arrests Ogun Speaker, Oluomo

The speaker of the Ogun state house of assembly, Hon. Olakunle Oluomo, has been arrested by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Oluomo was arrested at Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Lagos at about 9am on Thursday September 1, 2022.

His arrest was alleged to be in connection with financial crime surrounding the state house of assembly, which has been in the commission books for some time.

The leadership of the Commission has however kept mum over the arrest.

But a source within the Commission admitted that the Ogun State Speaker had been invited by the EFCC several times but failed to honour the invitations.

Oluomo has been taken to the EFCC’s Lagos office for further questioning.
