After several days of playing hide and seek backed with a mischievous media campaign, the former governor of Kwara State, Dr. Bukola Saraki, on Monday afternoon surrendered to the Nigeria Police Force at its headquarters in Abuja.
Reliable sources at the Force Headquarters confirmed that Saraki arrived their office hours after several buses load of his supporters arrived Abuja in solidarity. He is said to have been detained and undergoing interrogation.
The police said that as governor, Saraki obtained a N9.7 billion loan from the defunct Intercontinental Bank Plc through a proxy company, Joy Petroleum, owned by his late aide, Matthew Obahor. But the senator had claimed he had no link to the said loan and that he had no relationship with the company, Joy Petroleum.
How long they would keep him remain to be seen. But the Force spokesman said he will have to be with them until his interrogators are satisfied...
