Spokesperson for the ICPC, Demola Bakare, who made this disclosure to newsmen, said that Folawiyo is being investigated for alleged massive theft, diversion of public funds for personal use, and failure to follow due process.

“He was arrested at the council secretariat on 42 Broad Street, Lagos, after repeatedly ignoring invitations which he acknowledged.

“He is currently in our custody. He was arrested by a team from the ICPC Headquarters for the aforementioned reasons but has since been granted administrative bail. He is expected to report back today as the investigation continues,” Bakare said.
