ICPC operatives raids El-Rufai’s residence in Abuja

Operatives of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) have reportedly carried out a search at the Abuja residence of former Kaduna State governor, Nasir el-Rufai.

The development was confirmed by el-Rufai’s media aide, Muyiwa Adekeye, who said in a brief statement that agents of the anti-corruption commission conducted the search on Thursday.

“UPDATE: The Aso Drive residence of Malam Nasir @elrufai was today searched by the ICPC. Ubong Akpan, Malam El- Rufai’s lawyer, condemned the action “as unlawful, and a clear violation of legal procedures and fundamental rights”,” Adekeye wrote on X.
