Infographics produced by the Transparency International shows that the former governors were accused of the alleged crime at different times of in their administration.

Salihu had earlier said: “The searchlight of the EFCC is not only on former governors; its (searchlight) is also on other Nigerians who think they can take funds belonging to the country and put them in their private pockets.
