Former EFCC Chairman Bawa is released from custody by the DSS

Date:

There are reports that the Department of State Service (DSS) has released embattled former Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC), Abdulrasheed Bawa, from detention after over 134 days in its custody.

His release is coming barely one week after the Senate confirmed the appointment of Ola Olukoyede as the substantive Chairman of the anti-graft agency.

Although the circumstances surrounding his sudden release still appear quite unclear, Bawa was reported to have been freed late on Wednesday night, with videos circulating on social media showing wild jubilations as he reunited with family members after he regained his freedom.
