The wife of Kano State Governor, Hafsat Ganduje, has been arrested by the Economic and Financial Crime Commission, EFCC over an alleged bribery and land fraud case reported by her son.
Hafsat had earlier been invited to report to the EFCC’s Abuja headquarters on September 13.
The arrest comes weeks after her failure to honour the anti-graft agency’s invitation.
The EFCC then threatened to arrest her.
It was learnt that Mrs Ganduje later said she travelled to the UK of that time to attend the graduation ceremony of her son.
Investigators are questioning Mrs Ganduje over allegations relating to land fraud in a petition by her own son, Abdualzeez Ganduje.
A person, who has the knowledge of the arrest but asked not to be identified, said “she was arrested on (Monday) evening.”
Mrs Ganduje was still at EFCC headquarters as of 6a.m. on Monday, this newspaper learnt.
