EFCC releases Jonathan’s ex-spokesman, Reuben Abati

Former Spokesman to immediate past President, Rueben Abati, has been released by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.

The anti-graft agency had arrested the columnist few weeks ago  for alleged benefiting from funds misappropriated by the Office of the former National Security Adviser, ONSA.

Abati was accused of receiving N50m, an amount he claimed was disbursed to media practitioners  during the 2015 Presidential election.

EFCC had earlier granted Abati bail after asking him to drop his International Passport and produce a surety of not below level 16 in the Civil Service as part of the conditions for his release.
