The senator representing Delta North in the National Assembly, Peter Nwaboshi, who was convicted and sentenced to seven years’ imprisonment seven months ago by the Court of Appeal in Lagos for laundering, was on Wednesday remanded in the Ikoyi Custodial Centre to commence his prison term.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission stated that Nwaoboshi had been on the run.
EFCC’s Head, Media and Publicity, Wilson Uwujaren, in a statement, said the lawmaker was intercepted by EFCC operatives at a hospital in Lagos on Monday, February 6.
