BEVERLY HILLS, May 30, (THEWILL) – The Economic and Financial Crimes and Commission (EFCC), has described as fake news the reports that its operatives arrested former Governor of Imo State, Rochas Okorocha, and his wife, Nkechi.

There had been reports on Thursday that the anti-graft agency arrested the former governor and sealed his apartment in Eastern Palm University, Ogboko.

However, speaking exclusively to THEWILL on Thursday, EFCC’s spokesman, Tony Orilade, refuted the claims, describing the report as “fake news”.

“To debunk such report that Okorocha and wife have been arrested is an understatement. It’s fake news,” he said.
