Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), on Tuesday, raided the headquarters of the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) in Abuja over alleged fraud.
The operatives, who arrived at the commission in a white bus at exactly 11am on Tuesday with a valid warrant of arrest, left the premises with the spokesperson of the commission, Fatimah Usara, and three other yet-to-be-identified staff members.
Reports said that the arrest was linked to an ongoing investigation concerning the misappropriation of funds.
Earlier, operatives of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) had also raided the headquarters of the commission over the alleged mismanagement of the N90 billion intervention fund for the 2024 Hajj.
As of Tuesday evening, the anti-graft agency was yet to issue an official statement on the matter.
