On Tuesday, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission detained the Abia State Resident Electoral Commissioner, Mr. Sylvester Ezeani, for collecting N20 million in the buildup to the 2015 Presidential election.
According to reports, Ezeani collected the bribe to influence the outcome of the 2015 Presidential election in favour of the Peoples Democratic Party.
Ezeani, who was deployed to Cross Rivers State to conduct the election, reportedly took the money, which was part of the N241 million released out of the $115 million lodged with Fidelity Bank by immediate past Petroleum Minister, Diezani Alison-Madueke, to manipulate the poll.
