Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in search of more evidence on the unravelling $2.1 billion arms purchase scandal have raided the Abuja offices of former Vice President Namadi Sambo.

The raid was carried out Saturday night in the central business district in Abuja.

EFCC sources hinted that the former VP’s office is being investigated over allegations that some of the funds disbursed for political campaigns under the former NSA Sambo Dasuki were routed through the VP’s office.
