Recalled that, the speaker was picked up at the Murtala Muhammad Airport, Lagos on Thursday morning by EFCC officials after he allegedly failed to honour several invitation of the commission.
However, he has been released on Friday after spending one night at the EFCC office in Abuja for alleged stealing, forgery and financial misappropriation.
Oluomo’s Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Mallam AbdulGhaffar Adeleye, who confirmed his release said the speaker was released on Friday.
Adeleye said, “My boss is at home, the public should disregard the rumour that he was taken to Abuja for questioning.”
