Mele Kyari Released After EFCC Questioning

Mele Kyari, the former GMD of NNPC, was released from EFCC custody after being questioned on financial matters. The EFCC had sought a freeze order on Kyari's accounts, linked to fraud allegations, which was partially granted for a limited period by the Federal High Court in Abuja.

The court ordered a temporary freeze on four Jaiz bank accounts associated with Kyari pending further investigation. Kyari maintained his innocence and expressed confidence in his actions.

The interrogation and legal proceedings shed light on the ongoing scrutiny of financial activities and accountability in Nigeria's public sector.
