He is being interrogated by the anti-graft agency alongside the former Kaduna state PDP Chairman, Haruna Gaya and former Secretary to the state government, Hamza Ishaq.

On Friday morning, the three men voluntarily reported to the Kaduna State EFCC office in the state capital, where they were interrogated by detectives of the commission for over four hours.

The former governor and two others were later released on administrative bail after answering questions from EFCC operatives.

Commenting on the development, the spokesman of the former governor,  Yakubu Lere, absorbed his Yero of any wrongdoing in connection with the disbursement of the campaign fund.

He also alleged that Yero is being politically blackmailed.
