The Saleh Mamman EFCC arrest mugshots have surfaced following the arrest of the former Minister of Power by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), marking a fresh development in the ongoing investigation into alleged financial misconduct linked to major federal power projects in Nigeria.
According to Titansloaded reports, the Saleh Mamman EFCC arrest mugshots surfaced after the former minister was tracked and arrested in Kaduna State by EFCC operatives following weeks of surveillance. The arrest also included two individuals suspected of assisting him in evading arrest.
In the released images, the Saleh Mamman EFCC arrest mugshots show the former minister in handcuffs holding a booking board, in line with standard EFCC arrest documentation procedures. The visuals have since drawn widespread public attention due to the high-profile nature of the case.
The EFCC Chairman, Ola Olukoyede, confirmed that the Saleh Mamman EFCC arrest mugshots followed an intelligence-led operation carried out at about 3:30 a.m. He explained that the suspect had been under close monitoring before his eventual arrest in Kaduna.
Olukoyede also noted that the property where Mamman was arrested is currently under investigation, as authorities widen their probe into possible collaborators and assets linked to the case. He stressed that the commission is intensifying efforts to ensure all parties connected to the alleged fraud are brought to justice.
The Saleh Mamman EFCC arrest mugshots come shortly after a Federal High Court in Abuja sentenced the former minister to 75 years imprisonment in absentia over 12 counts bordering on money laundering and fraud involving an alleged ₦33.8 billion.
The funds in question are reportedly tied to major federal infrastructure projects, including the Mambilla and Zungeru hydropower projects under the Ministry of Power during his tenure.
Olukoyede reiterated that the Saleh Mamman EFCC arrest mugshots symbolize the Federal Government’s renewed commitment to fighting corruption and recovering stolen public funds, warning that no individual would escape accountability regardless of status or former office.
He further stated that the EFCC will continue its nationwide enforcement operations, emphasizing that suspects involved in financial crimes will be pursued wherever they may be hiding.
Mamman remains in EFCC custody as investigations continue, while authorities expand their probe into related financial transactions and possible accomplices.
