    It was alleged that N780 million which was allocated to a rehabilitation project in the ministry under Oduah was allegedly traced to a company linked to Anyim, a one-time president of the Senate.

    A source told the publication;”The EFCC on Sunday (yesterday) commenced the interrogation of a former Senate President, Senator Anyim Pius Anyim, in a case on public funds.

    “Anyim arrived at the headquarters of the anti-graft agency in Jabi, Abuja, at about 3pm.
