Former Governor of Ekiti State, Kayode Fayemi, may have responded to the invitation by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
The ex-Governor was reportedly sighted at the Zonal Command Office of the anti-graft agency in Ilorin, Kwara state capital on Thursday.
According to sources privy to the development, Fayemi arrived at the EFCC facility at about 10am.
The former Governor is being interrogated by operatives of the anti-graft agency, over allegations of N4 billion misappropriation.
It was gathered that the allegation was contained in some of the petitions written against his administration by some groups and individuals.
Towards the end of his administration, Fayemi had hurriedly commissioned some uncompleted projects which include the Cargo Airport and Bus Terminal in the State Capital.
Contractors are just being re-mobilized to the sites for the completion of the projects.
Fayemi, a member of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), was Governor of the State from 2018 to 2022. He handed over to Biodun Oyebanji after the latter won the governorship election in June 2022.
The EFCC had earlier last month written to the former governor to report at the Ilorin zonal office but requested for time as he was busy with some programmes connected to the May 29 handing over date.
