| Ex-Minister Iheanacho |
Former
Minister of Interior and owner of Integrated Oil and Gas Ltd, Capt. Emmunel
Iheanacho, arrested on Friday, has been released by the Lagos State Command of
the State Security Service (SSS).
Vanguard gathered that the former minister was
released Friday night. It was alleged that his company received stolen
petroleum products in its depot.
Officials of
the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) and armed
forces personnel attached to the Global West Vessel Specialist Limited (GWVSL)
invaded Integrated Oil and Gas corporate headquarters, Marine Road, Apapa on
Friday where the former minister was arrested and kept for several hours at
NIMASA before the matter was transferred to the Lagos State Command of the SSS.
Sources at the oil firm headquarters Saturday,
confirmed the release of Iheanacho but efforts to get him to tell his story
proved abortive. His aides told Vanguard that the former minister would tell
his own side of the story at the appropriate time.
