home, the Nigerian Police

has carried out a search of his Maitama, Abuja official guest house.
The search it was learnt took place on Friday and was carried out by policemen who claimed to be from the Force Headquarters.
The Senator’s Special Adviser, Uche Anichukwu who confirmed the
development explained that Ekweremadu was never informed nor was any of
his aides before the search was conducted.
He said that the policemen failed to find anything implicating at the guest house located at 10 Ganges Street, Maitama.
Ekweremadu had about two weeks ago alleged that the EFCC was plotting
to raid his home and possibly implant something incriminating in his
home, which they will use to implicate him of wrong doings.
The EFCC had then said that if there is need to raid the senator’s
home that it was going to do that, adding that Ekweremadu has nothing to
fear if he had nothing to hide.
