The Economic Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has unfrozen the bank accounts of Benue state government.

Chief press secretary to governor Ortom, Terver Akase, confirmed this on Thursday.

This comes less than 24 hours after the Nigerian Governors’ Forum tackled the commission for the action.

Abdulaziz Yari, chairman of the forum, had described the act as unconstitutional, calling on the government of President Muhammadu Buhari to call the anti-graft agency to order.
