The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission on Thursday afternoon arrested a former Director-General of the Department of State Services, Ita Ekpeyong.
The raid occurred barely 10 months after the DSS under the leadership of the recently sacked DG, Lawal Daura, prevented EFCC men from searching or arresting Ekpeyong despite a court order, reports Punch.
The EFCC men came in three buses and some patrol vehicles accompanied by over 20 armed policemen and raided the house located at 46, Maman Nasir Street, Asokoro, Abuja.
It was observed that no cash was recovered.
