Uwajuren said Obiano has been on the watchlist of the EFCC prior to the transition on Thursday March 17.
He said;
Obiano has been on our watchlist for sometime now. He had immunity as a governor and that is why we could not arrest him before now. Today he lost the immunity and was traveling out of the country before we finally arrested him.
