EFCC Declares Former Power Minister, Agunloye, Wanted

Ex minister of power and steel in person of Dr. Olu Agunloye has been listed as wanted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.

An alleged case of corruption and forgery led the anti-graft agency to proclaim the minister, who is from Akoko North Local Government Area in Ondo State, wanted.

In September, Agunloye was questioned by the EFCC on a purported $6 billion Build, Operate and Transfer deal, according to The PUNCH.

This was made public by the commission on Wednesday and was announced on its website.

The EFCC message read, “Anybody with useful information as to his whereabouts should please contact the Commission in its Benin, Kaduna, Ibadan, Sokoto, Maiduguri, Mardi, Ilorin, Enugu, Kano, Lagos, Gombe, Uyo, Port Harcourt, and Abuja offices or contact 08093322644 or email info@efcc.gov.ng or the nearest police station and any other security agencies.”

In 2016, Agunloye joined the Social Democratic Party and became the party’s candidate in the state governorship election.
