Former Nigerian Aviation minister, Femi Fani-Kayode has refuted claims he was arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) after he was reportedly arrested again by the commission, on Tuesday 30th November,

On November 23, 2021, Fani-Kayode was reportedly arrested by the anti-graft bureau for allegedly neglecting and manipulating paperwork. He quickly denied being arrested by the committee, claiming that he had only been invited.

The commission allegedly arrested him again on November 30. In response to recent reports that he had been re-arrested by the commission, Fani-Kayode claimed that he had not been arrested but had been invited back to the commission.

Taking to his Instagram handle, he wrote;

“I was invited to the EFCC again today. Once again, despite media reports, I was NOT arrested but merely invited and I honored the invitation. I got there at 11.00am and I left 9.00pm. Thanks be to God!”
