While playing host to the Managing Director designate of Zenith Bank Plc, Mr. Ebenezer Oyeagwu at the Government House, Port Harcourt, Wike, hinted that the EFCC must first vacate an order of the Federal High Court that barred it from investigating the financial transactions of the state government before the anti-graft agency can launch any probe.
His words: “EFCC has no powers to look into our financial transactions. You cannot be giving our financial transactions to the EFCC because that is illegal.
“Unless the EFCC sets aside the judgment, they have no powers to look into our financial transactions. Not that we are afraid, but due process must be followed.”
The governor also threatened to commence necessary legal processes if Zenith Bank failed to obey the court judgment.
