(AFRICAN EXAMINER) – The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has placed Governor Willie Obiano, governor of Anambra State on its watchlist.

This development is coming months before Obiano is expected to vacate office as governor.

According to a letter dated November 15 and addressed to the comptroller-general of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS), the anti-graft agency asked to be informed whenever Obiano intends to travel out of the country.

African examiner writes that as of the time of filing this report, it is not clear why the EFCC placed Obiano on its watchlist.
