The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has re-arrested a former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode.
The PDP chieftain was re-arrested by operatives of the anti-graft agency about 1.55pm outside the premises of a Federal High Court on Oyinkan Abayomi Drive, Ikoyi, Lagos.
Fani-Kayode, who was in court for his trial over an alleged fraud of N4.9bn, was re-arrested shortly after he stepped out of the court premises.

Meanwhile, latest report informs that EFCC is moving Fani-Kayode to Abuja after arresting him in Lagos.
It was gathered from a reliable source in the anti-graft agency that Femi Fani-Kayode is presently being taken to the airport.
The latest arrest of Fan-Kayode comes after he said in a statement on Thursday, October 20 that the commission was planning to re-arrest him.
“I have been reliably informed by my sources within the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) that they are planning to re-arrest and detain me for as long as possible once again even though I have been granted bail by the Federal High Court in Lagos,” Fani-Kayode said.
