The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arrested former Minister of Power, Saleh Mamman, following his recent conviction and sentencing by the Federal High Court in Abuja over allegations of financial misappropriation during his time in office.

According to the anti-graft agency, Mamman was apprehended in Kaduna alongside two individuals who were allegedly shielding him from arrest.
The EFCC also disclosed that the property where the former minister was arrested is currently under investigation as part of ongoing efforts linked to the case.
