over allegations of corruption.
Mr. Sheriff is said to have voluntarily handed himself in
Wednesday afternoon.
The spokesperson for the EFCC, Wilson Uwujaren,
confirmed that Mr. Sheriff was currently being held by the
commission.
PREMIUM TIMES reported how the anti-graft agency had on
April 23, moved to declare Mr. Sheriff wanted when he
failed to honour its invitations for questioning.
The former governor, was who summoned by the
commission to appear, damned the invitation and stayed
away.
Although the specific allegations against the former
governor are​ unclear at this time, sources said the
investigation is related to allegations that parts of the
N300billion his administration received from the Federation
Account between 2003 and 2011 were not judiciously spent.
The investigation began in 2012 and had been ongoing ever
since, a source said.
Mr. Sheriff governed Borno State on the platform of the
defunct All Nigeria Peoples Party.
Before then, he was a senator between 1999 and 2003 on
the ticket of the same party.
He was a founding member of the ruling All Progressives
Congress, APC, before he defected to the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP.
