A former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fanikayode, was on Tuesday arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.
This happened weeks after he moved to the ruling All Progressives Congress from the Peoples Democratic Party.
Many felt that he sought protection to the party as he has been under investigation for alleged money laundering since about four years ago.
While the reason for his arrest has not been made public, the EFCC, through its media man, Wilson Uwujaren, confirmed he had been picked up.
