Governor Ayo Fayose of Ekiti State, on Thursday stormed the Zenith Bank branch in Ado Ekiti to make cash withdrawal from his bank account that was frozen by the EFCC.
Mr. Fayose’s account was frozen in June on allegations that he took money from a former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki, who is currently being prosecuted for over arms purchase scandal.
The EFCC said it would appeal the ruling.
On Thursday afternoon, the governor’s media assistant, Lere Olayinka, circulated images showing that Mr. Fayose had been to the bank to withdraw a total sum of money.
