One of the topics of the day was the seeming face-off between a former Governor of Kogi State, Yahaya Bello, and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission. And that is the point those who have been clamouring for the EFCC to do a better job of the allegations against Bello have been making. He promised to tackle this, but he appears to have failed in his first major case involving Bello. Even Olukoyede confirmed this when he said that his invitation to the former Kogi State helmsman was via a personal telephone call. Otherwise, the political connotation being read into the Bello case will refuse to go away.
