He said, “Earlier today, I had the honour of receiving the former Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, His Excellency Alhaji @atiku, GCON, Waziri Adamawa, at my residence. I thank His Excellency for the visit.”
In August, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) detained Tambuwal for a night over alleged N189 billion fraud.
After being granted bail, Tambuwal vowed not to be silenced and accused the anti-graft agency of intimidation and blackmail.
Meanwhile, the opposition African Democratic Congress (ADC) described the timing of the investigation as a political witch-hunt aimed at weakening opposition forces ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
