The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission told a
Federal Capital Territory High Court in Gudu, Abuja, on Tuesday, that a former
Governor of Plateau State, Mr. Joshua Dariye, was still wanted in the United

Dariye, who was later elected Senator, representing
Plateau Central in the 2015 general elections, is being prosecuted on 23 counts

while he was the state governor.
