Sources within the EFCC revealed multiple strategies under consideration, including potential actions at the Kogi State Government House in Lokoja where Bello is believed to be hiding. The EFCC’s Executive Chairman, Mr. Ola Olukoyede, recently engaged with INTERPOL heads in North Africa following his participation in a forum on illicit financial flows in Tunisia. He formally requested Bello’s placement on a Red Alert across these countries, ensuring his potential arrest if located in any part of North Africa.
“We are taking these steps to ensure Bello’s availability for his court appearance and to uphold the integrity of our legal processes,” an EFCC source stated, emphasizing the agency’s commitment to preventing any attempt by Bello to evade justice.
