The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has reportedly frozen the bank accounts of the Osun State Government just 10 days before the state’s governorship election.
Details surrounding the action remain unclear as of the time of filing this report, with the anti-graft agency yet to publicly state the reasons for the move.
The development comes at a politically sensitive period ahead of the election and is expected to generate widespread reactions from political stakeholders and residents of the state.
Efforts to obtain official comments from the EFCC and the Osun State Government were ongoing at the time of publication.
More details to follow.
