The case of alleged fraud involving Senator Godswill Akpabio is not over, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has said.
Akpabio had said that he was a man of peace that had no case to answer with the EFCC, adding that the young man who petitioned him before the commission could not prove his case.
But the EFCC insisted his case is ongoing.
Akpabio had said, “Those petitions to the EFCC have been sorted out. As I stand today, I have not been charged to court because nothing was found against me."
However, the spokesman for the EFCC, Mr Wilson Uwujaren, in a text message while responding to an inquiry made by The Punch, insisted that Akpabio’s case was still ongoing.
When asked if Akpabio was still under probe, the EFCC spokesman said, “EFCC does not close cases or give clearance to anybody.”
