According to reports, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has reportedly frozen an Osun State Government account domiciled with First Bank of Nigeria, ten days ahead of the state’s governorship election. The development was contained in documents reportedly obtained by Vanguard.
Details surrounding the account freeze and the reasons for the action have not been officially disclosed. However, the timing of the move has drawn attention, coming as political activities intensify ahead of the governorship poll in Osun State.
As of the time of reporting, neither the EFCC nor the Osun State Government had issued an official statement on the matter. The situation is expected to attract further public and political interest as stakeholders await clarification on the circumstances surrounding the account freeze.
