Senator Theodore Orji

The senator’s sons were arrested on Saturday, December 8, 2018 over allegations of cash being stashed at the home of Peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar’s two sons.

Sources said they were arrested at an apartment in Maitama, Abuja where they live in a flat. Atiku Abubakar’s two sons also live in the same building.

The Atiku Abubakar’s sons; Mustapha and Aliyu are said to be in Dubai, United Arab Emirates for their master’s programme when the EFCC arrested the lawmaker’s sons; Chiemeka and his brother.

We gathered that the EFCC operatives quizzed Chiemeka and his brother, demanding to know where Atiku Abubakar’s sons stashed money in the house.

The EFCC operatives reportedly told the lawmaker’s sons that they have information that they knew about the movement of cash into the house.

They asked Chiemeka and his brother to lead them to the flat occupied by Atiku Abubakar’s sons but were told they didn’t have access to the flat.

The duo also denied knowledge of money being stashed in the compound. They were then taken to the EFCC Abuja headquarters where they were questioned for several hours.

Meanwhile, sources told us that though the senator’s children have been released, two of their vehicles were towed away to the EFCC premises and they are yet to recover the vehicles.
