The spokesperson of EFCC, Wilson Uwujaren, has confirmed that the agency has the legal right to freeze the account of Governor Ayo Fayose, even though he enjoys immunity under the constitution.
Speaking with Vanguard on Monday night, Uwujaren said the immunity being enjoyed by any governor doesn’t prevent the EFCC from investigating suspicious movements of money into his accounts.
“Immunity does not prevent EFCC from investigating suspicious accounts of those enjoying immunity and Fayose cannot be an exception, " he said.
One of Fayose’s account with Zenith bank was frozen by EFCC due to suspicious financial transactions.
