Billionaire businessman, Tunde Ayeni, is reportedly in the custody of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
Ayeni, a former Chairman of Skye Bank Plc, was picked up on Thursday in Abuja over an alleged fraud running into billions of Naira and millions of US Dollars.
The Commission is said to be probing alleged diversion and misappropriation of about N36.5 billion in addition to $36 million.
The huge amount was, reportedly, obtained from Polaris Bank Plc via companies linked to the Skye Bank Chairman.
There has, however, been no statement from either the anti-graft Commission or Ayeni’s Counsel..
