There has been palpable anxiety in the government circles of Nigeria’s Oyo State over the alleged arrest of Mrs. Florence Ajimobi, wife of the governor, in the United Kingdom for alleged money laundering.

She was allegedly found to be in possession of 400,000 pounds and thousands of dollars, with a combined value of N500 million.

While reports on the web and some blogs claimed that the woman was arrested two weeks ago by the London Metropolitan Police on her 52nd trip to the UK since her husband became governor 17 months ago, as at the time of filling this report, London Metropolitan Police confirmed her arrest over the money laundering issue this afternoon following an enquiry by P.M.NEWS.
