Just In: ICPC Searches El-Rufai’s House In Kaduna

Operatives of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) on Thursday, carried out searches at the residence of former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai.

The development was confirmed in a statement issued by the media adviser to El-Rufai, Muyiwa Adekeye.

One of El-Rufai’s lawyers, Ubong Akpan, also condemned the search, describing it as “unlawful, and a clear violation of legal procedures and fundamental rights.”

It would be recalled that the ICPC confirmed that El-Rufai was taken into custody on Wednesday night for questioning after he was released on bail by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
