She has asked for a three-week grace to appear before the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
But the EFCC on Thursday approved only three days for her to attend to her health and appear for interrogation.
In order to avoid being declared wanted, the Ex-Minister reported at the EFCC’s headquarters a few minutes ago.
“She has complied with our 72-hour ultimatum, her investigation by our team has started,” a top source confirmed.
