Nigeria’s anti-graft agency, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), arrests former Minister of Power Saleh Mamman after he is convicted over alleged financial misappropriation. Multiple reports say Mamman had been in hiding after a Federal High Court in Abuja convicted him on 7 May on corruption charges. The court later sentenced him to 75 years in prison on 13 May. The outlets report that Mamman was “fleeing” or had gone underground following the conviction, and the EFCC locates and arrests him thereafter. One report adds that the EFCC releases mugshots of Mamman after the arrest. The reports cite allegations tied to fraud involving N33.8 billion and describe the conviction as occurring in absentia, meaning Mamman is tried without being present. The EFCC’s actions and communications focus on the arrest following the conviction and sentence, as well as public release of identifying photographs after custody. The articles do not provide details of his current detention status beyond the arrest, nor do they report new court proceedings after his capture.
