The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has detained a former Minister of Finance, Ambassador Bashir Yuguda, over his alleged involvement in the 115million dollars bribe which was distributed by a former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke.
The EFCC said in a statement that the former minister who is a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, allegedly diverted 450million naira out of the money.
