The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) have responded to reports that its operatives raided the apartment of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar’s sons and arrested sons of Senator Theodore Orji.

The commission responded in a series of tweets on Monday saying that the arrest of the former Abia State governor’s son, Ogbonna Orji had nothing to do with Mr Abubakar’s sons.

Alleging that Mr Orji laundered money through his sons, the EFCC tweeted that they had been trailing cars allegedly bought by Orji’s sons to a night club in Abuja where they arrested the owners Ogbonna and his friend, Kelvin Ilonah.

The commission confirmed that they were arrested at 5am on Saturday, adding that the duo took the operatives to their three-flat apartment where documents showed that it was rented at a rate of N13million per annum.
