The Ekiti State Federal High Court has ruled that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC lacked the authority to investigate finances of the Ekiti State.
“In federalism, the Federal Government is not an overseer or supervisor regarding finances of a State,” the court said.
The court informed that only the State House of Assembly can investigate finances of a State.
The court stopped the anti-graft agency from interfering in the running of Ekiti State by either investigating or arresting any official of the State Government.
