The family of a former Imo State Governor and All Progressives Congress presidential aspirant, Rochas Okorocha, has accused the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission , EFCC, of failing to interrogate him 24 hours after his arrest.

Newsmen had earlier reported that EFCC operatives on Tuesday broke into Okorocha’s Abuja house after a seven-hour siege and arrested him.

The commission had explained that, the former governor was arrested, for jumping administrative bail earlier granted him.

In an interview on Wednesday night, a daughter of the former governor, Uloma Okorocha, said, her father’s arrest and detention might be part of plots to stop him from participating in the APC presidential screening and primaries.

She further stated that, Since his arrest, no official of the EFCC has spoken to him neither has he been interrogated, despite the desperation to arrest him. Everyone saw how they invaded his home, shooting as if they were arresting a terrorist.

She also said that, there was also heavy shooting as policemen attached to the commission tried to chase away family members and supporters of the serving senator and even after all these, he has not been questioned 24 hours after.
