A former governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal, has been released from the custody of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC),

The anti-graft agency had on Monday, August 11, invited and later on detained the former governor who is alleged to have fraudulently withdrawn some cash to the tune of N189 billion when he held sway as a governor of his State.

Sources in the commission says Tambuwal was granted administrative bail and is expected to leave the commission’s headquarters this night after perfecting his bail conditions.
