Former Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Adoza Bello was reportedly overcome with emotion while being held in the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) cell. According to sources, Bello lamented that, in his over 40 years of life, he had never had to share toilets with anyone or sleep on a student foam mattress on the floor .
Yahaya Bello’s emotional breakdown comes amidst his ongoing battle with the EFCC which has charged him with alleged money laundering to the tune of N80.2 billion . The former governor was declared wanted by the commission and has failed to appear in court for arraignment on multiple occasions .
