The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has invited former Bayelsa State Governor Timipre Sylva to make himself available for questioning over an alleged $14.86 million fraud.
The commission had previously declared Sylva wanted in connection with the investigation, and has now called on him to report to the agency for questioning.
The EFCC's invitation is part of an ongoing investigation into alleged financial misconduct involving the former governor.
The commission is expected to question Sylva over the circumstances surrounding the alleged transaction and establish the roles of all individuals connected to the matter.
The invitation does not amount to a conviction, and the allegations remain subject to investigation and due process.
The EFCC has continued to intensify investigations into alleged financial crimes involving former public officials and other individuals, as part of its mandate to combat corruption and economic and financial crimes in Nigeria.
