Former presidential spokesperson to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan Reuben has been arrested.

Mr Abati was arrested Monday and is expected to spend at least Monday night at the office of the anti-graft agency, EFCC.

Information available to Elombah.com indicates the famous journalist is being questioned for allegedly receiving some money from former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki.

Mr. Dasuki is currently being tried by the EFCC for his management of arms funds under him , in what is now known as #Dasukigate.

Mr. Abati’s arrest makes it at least three former aides of Mr. Jonathan who are currently in EFCC custody.

A former minister of state for defence is still with the commission since last week Monday when he voluntarily surrendered himself after staying months away from the country.

Another person currently in detention is Femi Fani-Kayode, a former Jonathan campaign spokesperson. He was arrested on Friday and is still with the commission.
