Coalition cautions EFCC against involving Yahaya Bello’s children in probe

Child's Rights Advocacy Network has faulted the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission for allegedly involving the children of former Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello in its ongoing investigation of the ex-governor for alleged money laundering to the tune of N80 billion.

The coalition however expressed concerns over the public exposure and potential harm the development has caused to the children of the former governor, “particularly the repeated mention of their names in press conferences and statements by EFCC officials.” “The actions of all parties involved in this case have inadvertently exposed these children to undue public scrutiny and potential harm, contravening both Nigerian law and international conventions on children’s rights.

“We urge the EFCC and all law enforcement agencies to uphold the highest ethical standards, ensuring that the rights of all individuals, especially vulnerable children, are protected throughout any legal process. The Federal Inland Revenue Service has filed an amended four-count charge against Binance Holdings Limited and its executive, Tigran Gambaryan, on alleged tax evasion.

Ideho informed the court that following the escape of Nadeem Anjarwalla…To ensure speedy dispensation of justice, the House of Representatives is considering an increase of Justices of the Court of Appeal from 90 to 150.
