It would be recalled that the operatives of the EFCC earlier today arrested the Speaker around 9:00 a.m. Thursday morning at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport in Lagos.
A source at the Ogun Assembly told NATIONAL WAVES that the operatives picked up Mr Oluomo to answer questions bordering on alleged financial misappropriationEfforts to make EFCC spokesperson Wilson Uwujaren react did not yield fruits as his phone was not reachable.
News had made the rounds that the speaker is enmeshed in a financial scandal which is currently been investigated by the anti graft agency.
After several invitations from the anti graft agency, the assembly filed charges against the anti-graft agency and the former Deputy Speaker, Oludare Kadiri.
The Assembly accused both Mr Kadiri and the agency of connivance to witch-hunt the legislators.
