This is coming at a time the three arrested former governors are still in EFCC custody, where they are undergoing interrogation.
According to a statement by Mr. Femi Babafemi, EFCC head, media & publicity, yesterday, Goje is being wanted over allegations of mismanagement and diversion of over N52 billion state funds.
The EFCC explained that it decided to declare the former governor wanted “after an endless search for him and his failure to submit himself for interrogation over the alleged fraud, even when he was in receipt of a letter of invitation giving him up to 12noon today(yesterday) to come out of his hiding.
The commission asked anybody who has information on the whereabouts of Goje to “send same to any of the EFCC’s offices across the country or the nearest police station.”
The anti-graft agency said that it would continue its search for Goje, while promising to always work within the ambit of the law in the discharge of its responsibility. It urged Nigerians, “especially those being investigated, to respect and obey the laws of the land.”
Meanwhile, Goje has said that he would appear before EFCC on Monday to clear his name of alleged corrupt practices
