The Will stated further that efforts to reach Colonel Kukasheka Usman, the acting director of army public relations, on Wednesday night were unproductive.

However, in a response to a text message sent to him, Colonel Usman reportedly wrote: "I have no idea" to explain that he knows nothing about the arrest.

In the same vein, calls to Wilson Uwujaren, the spokesperson of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission were not answered.

Only recently, reports surfaced of how the former vice president, Namadi Sambo may soon be declared wanted by the International riminal Police Organization (Interpol).

The Telegraph reports that the EFCC is set to seek the cooperation of the international police in bringing Sambo and some other officials of Jonathan’s government back to Nigeria.

Others are the former special adviser to Jonathan on Niger Delta affairs and the then chairman of the Presidential Amnesty Programme, Kingsley Kuku, as well as the last chairman of the EFCC, Ibrahim Lamorde.
