The operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) have arrested the Director-General of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship campaign council in Benue State, Cletus Tyokyaa, for being in possession of N100,000.
Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, disclosed this while speaking to journalists shortly after casting his vote in his Gbajimba hometown in Guma Local Government Area of the state on Saturday.
Ortom said Tyokyaa was apprehended by the EFCC operatives who found the cash in his possession.

“I received report from the DG of our campaign that he had been arrested this morning by EFCC for having N100,000 on him. What is that? Are they the agent of destabilisation? It is a shame.
“Why should they pick up somebody because of N100,000? I want to tell the EFCC to release him immediately.
“I have more than N100,000 on me but I’m not buying votes and he was not buying votes,” the governor said.
