EFCC Grills Ex-NNPC Boss Kyari Over Alleged Financial Impropriety

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has interrogated former NNPC Group CEO, Mele Kyari, over alleged financial impropriety during his tenure. Kyari was taken into custody in Abuja following accusations of fraud and financial misconduct related to a billion-dollar refinery maintenance program.

This action came after a court order to freeze four bank accounts linked to Kyari. The EFCC's scrutiny of Kyari's financial transactions underscores the agency's commitment to combating corruption and ensuring accountability within Nigeria's oil sector, particularly in high-profile cases involving senior officials.
