Chief Pius Anyim, former
Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, has been arrested by the
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
According to SaharaReportersn
Anyim is in detention where he is being interrogated by EFCC officials.
The former SFG was arrested by
the anti-graft agency over alleged fraud involving the Centenary City in Abuja.
The report said Anyim, who was
SGF under the immediate past administration of Goodluck Jonathan, is being
interrogated by the Commission’s operatives.
Recall that the House of
Representatives had recently recommended the prosecution of Anyim over the
Abuja Centenary City project.
The house also said Anyim and his
associates flouted existing laws guiding the Abuja land swap policy for
personal gains.
The project in question, which
cost over $18 billion, had Anyim as a major driver.
On February 3, Anyim, while
appearing before the committee, accused Herman Hembe, the committee’s chairman,
of “deep-seated personal bias”.
