Former Senior Special Assistant on Media to Bayelsa State Governor, Henry Seriake Dickson, has been arrested by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC. The suspect, Abnedgo Don- Evarada, was arrested on Monday April 25th in Port- Harcourt, Rivers State for offering a bribe of N10million to the EFCC's Zonal Head in Port- Harcourt, Mr Ishaq Salihu.

Trouble started for Don-Evarada after he approached Salihu, over a case involving the Senior Special Assistant to the Bayelsa's state governor on Millennium Development Goals, Apere Embelakpo and his wife, Fiene Beauty.



 Embelakpo is being investigated for alleged diversion of N800million, being funds meant for the Millennium Development Goals, MDG, while his wife is being investigated for alleged money laundering, forgery and suspicious transactions to the tune of N200million.

According to EFCC, Don- Evarada offered the bribe ostensibly to compromise the EFCC investigation but his bribe was turned down and he was arrested.
 He is being kept in the custody of the EFCC and would be charged to court as soon as investigation is concluded.
