Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) have arrested Rochas Okorocha, former Imo governor.
He was whisked away at 6:48pm on Tuesday.
Security operatives had earlier broken the entrance doors into the home of the former governor.
The senator representing Imo west had earlier declined to be taken away by the operatives, insisting that he will not submit himself to the anti-graft agency without a warrant.
