Ekiti Workers Warn EFCC against Arbitrary Arrest

Workers in Ekiti State under the auspices of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) have called on the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to promptly charge the arrested Commissioner for Finance, Toyin Ojo, and Accountant General of the state, Mrs. Yemisi Owolabi, to court if it has any case against them.

Chairman of NLC in the state, Mr. Ade Adesanmi, said the anti-graft agency’s continued detention of the commissioner and the accountant general is delaying the payment of salaries to the hungry workers in the state.
