The 40-year-old Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Abdulrasheed Bawa has said that the former governor of Lagos State and national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is under investigation and the commission will officially arrest him soon if the finding indicates that he is not innocent of the claim.



He made this known in an exclusive interview with a national daily on Sunday, Bawa said the investigation does not end in a day.

He said: “You asked me a question earlier about arresting people before the investigation and now you are saying why didn’t we arrest Tinubu? Why didn’t you just say ‘arrest him?’

“Investigation is ongoing. When you are investigating matters like this, they don’t end in a day. Thousands of investigations are going on, on a daily basis.

“You understand? You know you are from the media. After you will say we are doing media trial.”

Bawa was said to have requested for Tinubu’s assets declaration form when he was the head of Lagos Zonal Office.
