The high-profile individuals who are reportedly being probed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) include former governors, ex-ministers, justices and an ex-first lady.
According to PUNCH, not less than 100 high-ranking public officials and persons who served in the Goodluck Jonathan administration are in a list seen by its reporters.
The list was said to have been sent to Abubakar Malami, the attorney general of the federation and minister of justice, by the EFCC.
The investigations on the high profile persons were said to have been instigated by petitions, whistle blowers and through intelligence gathering.
