Police Headquarters Detains Yahaya Bello’s ADC, Security Details 

Fresh reports have emerged that the Nigeria Police Force has detained a female police officer who was the aide-de-camp to fleeing former Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello.

Reliable media reports indicated that the ADC was arrested alongside other police officers attached to Bello, and being detained at the State Criminal Investigation Department, Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.

Their arrests and detention followed a Thursday night order by the Inspector General of Police, Olukayode Egbetokun, directing their immediate withdrawal from the former governor.

Senior police sources, who preferred anonymity, disclosed that the officers were arrested on the suspicion that they aided and abetted Bello’s escape from operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.

It was recalled the anti-graft agency had gone to effect his arrest at his Abuja home on Wednesday.

“The ADC and the other police details attached to Yahaya Bello have been arrested and detained.

“They were arrested on the order of the IG, on the suspicion that they aided and abetted the former governor’s escape from the EFCC on Wednesday,” one of the sources was quoted as saying.

Another source said, “Yahaya Bello’s female ADC and other police officers attached to him were brought to the command this morning, and they’ve been detained for aiding and abetting (the governor’s escape).”

The EFCC is investigating Bello over alleged laundering of the sum of N80,246,470,088.88.
