Former chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Tom Ikimi, has been arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over his role in the alleged arms deal scandal.
The former minister of foreign affairs to late Nigerian dictator, General Sanni Abacha was taken into EFCC custody on Thursday, February 4, 2016.
An EFCC source told Saharareporters that Ikimi had been grilled at their Abuja office over two days and allowed to go home each day after interrogation because of his health.
The source said Mr. Ikimi, who decamped from the APC to support former President Goodluck Jonathan bid for a second term, was involved in the $2.1billion arms funds scandal.
