As of the time of filling this report, she has spent over nine hours with her interrogators.

The Executive Secretary of the Nigerian Investment Promotion Council, Mrs Yewande Sadiku, has been arrested and detained by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission over alleged monumental fraud.

The technocrat, who arrived at the headquarters of the anti-graft agency at about 11am, on Monday, August 9, 2021, is being grilled by a team of operatives of the Commission over wide ranging corruption issues. A source familiar with the investigation disclosed that the NIPC boss is being questioned for abuse of office, bordering largely on contract fraud running into several millions of Naira and a number of frivolous allowances.

“She is cooperating and has volunteered statement but there is still a lot of grounds to be covered,” the source said. When contacted, EFCC spokesman, Wilson Uwujaren confirmed her presence in the Commission but declined further comment.

Nah criminal full this country

Its just unspeakable the way Nigerians has form a very strong partnership with fraud and crime in general. I wish us well o

Corruption everywhere

ytsadiku? Fraud? That's hilarious. Not in a million years. In my view there's not a more honest and sincere person working anywhere in the Nigerian government. But was she actually 'arrested'? It's important that media uses words such as 'arrest' and 'detained' accurately.

Junk & sensational Journalism MUST END! An injustice against any, is an injustice against ALL!!!

But why is fraud/corruption so rampant in Nigeria? Why mess up your career having reached such lofty height? Crazy!

Government of fraudsters all over the place!

As long she is one of them abd their girl friend nothing will happen

Even if you're a Saint, once you identify or associate yourself with a corrupt, shameless and immoral country called Nigeria you will be like them,that's why Nigeria must come to an end to end immorality, corruption and shameless identification.

EFCC is a puppet in the hands of this Buhari and Osibanjo's uninteresting government. I do not expect any logical action from the agency.

Niger for show all southerners should realize that they are coming for them one after the other, they've start with her, next will be announced soon

She had no one to tell her she is the wrong ethnicity and religion? Immunity is not extended to you, madam.

The word 'thief' should be used not corruption

All these people are fraudsters

Olè ni everybody......God help heal 🇳🇬from her illness

Lol 😂... they’ll soon comeback to tell us that she wasn’t arrested,she was invited for question. 😝😝😝😝

Last last no sincere official for this country i feel for the future generation. Put blind man there him go still steal to regain sight.

Lol 😂 😂 😂

How? Since when? They had better not smear this amazing lady's name. She's beyond reproach. I'm certain her tribe is the problem here and another fulani is waiting to replace her.

MNK said that none of them are innocent people take it as an insult, can you see even this one that looks like born again Christian. Stealing going on everyday. FreeNnamdiKanuNow FreeBiafrans GiveUsReferendum

Almost 80% Nigerians are thieves

What if Abba Kyari

Lol!!

No Nigeria leaders get to the his or position, (Office) with the degree he or she have, it All through frauds, The on with the degree to put there are all speaking big Grammer here on media to protect the uneducated leading them.

Why is it always fraud? How can you work so hard to get to a position of importance like this only to ruin it with your bare hands? Will you people die if you do things the right way? You people don’t care about legacy and what history will remember you by.

This is the era of exposè… let all that is hidden be made public and the evil disgraced… Follow me.. I follow back INSTANTLY…

This lady is one of the most upright people I've met. Only a matter of time till she’s proven innocent

That's the face of a responsible Nigerian

Yet the PS in charge of the state clinic says after 11bn spent, it’s still not enough. Bawa no dey see that one abi?

In Nigeria everyone is responsible and holy till you give him/her vital position.

It seems all government officials, public servants and politicians are rogues in Nigeria. What a mess of a country

What is this!!

We saw it happen to Mrs. Winifred Oyo - Ita.

Corruption everywhere... Smh 🤦‍♂️ 💔FixNigeria

The corruption in Nigeria is extraordinary. Only few people are clean

You can never carry a cross you don't know, she serve but serving a call of slave and master.

Everyone is a suspect ! Na wa o

I'm tired of Nigerians 😭 with their corrupted minds, 70% of Nigerians always want to make fast money to oppress each other.🤦 This has to stop fr.

Anything from quota system region has only one agenda on public office. To steal and loot.

You get side hustle too

EFCC are criminals themselves, so I see nothing with them going far with it.

Nawaoo This is becoming too much
