Ibanga Akpabio |
Ibanga Akpabio who is current Deputy Chairman of the
People’s Democratic Party in Akwa Ibom state has been arrested by the
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission in connection with fraud.
Ibanga is the younger brother of Godswill Akpabio, a former Governor
of Akwa Ibom state who is now a Senator of the Federal Republic of
Nigeria. EFCC sources said the senior Akpabio is facing separate
investigations over his mismanagement and embezzlement of Akwa Ibom
state fund.
Sources at the EFCC told Saharareporters that Mr. Ibanga was arrested
and detained at the Zonal offices of the EFCC in Port Harcourt for
defrauding a member of the Federal House of Representatives, Robinson
Uwak. He is also being interrogated over allegations of fraud and money
laundering according to EFCC operatives.
SaharaReporters recently obtained a telephone recording of Ibanga
Akpabio where he bragged about his connections with security agencies as
well as the chairman of the EFCC, Ibrahim Magu.
