The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has launched a manhunt for a former chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Professor Maurice Iwu in connection with a N23.29 billion poll bribery scandal.
Information reaching us indicated that Professor Iwu allegedly perpetrated strategies which ensured the rigging of elections by taking the bribe.
It was gathered that the former INEC chairman has been evading arrest since last two weeks as a result of which the EFCC now put him on red alert.
An EFCC source said: “Our operatives are still looking for him. We have put other security agencies on the alert. He is wanted in connection with the N23.29 poll bribery perpetrated by a former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke.” [myad]
