A female police officer who was the aide-de-camp to former Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello has been arrested and detained by the Nigeria Police Force.
GOVIMA reliably gathered that the ADC was arrested alongside other police officers attached to the embattled former governor.
According to sources, the officers were arrested on the suspicion that they aided and abetted Bello’s escape from security operatives, who besieged his Abuja home on Wednesday to effect his arrest.
Recall that the Inspector General of Police, Olukayode Egbetokun, had on Thursday night directed the immediate withdrawal of all officers attached to Bello.
The order for the withdrawal, which was contained in a police wireless message, followed the disappearance of Bello from his Abuja home after the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC besieged the residence.
The anti-graft agency had also declared Bello wanted, urging Nigerians with useful information about his whereabouts to report to the nearest police station.
