He was declared wanted in a notice published by the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) on Thursday.

The anti-graft agency said Kumo is declared wanted alongside Tarry Rufus and Bola Ogunsola over alleged misappropriation and dispersion of national housing funds.

Kumo, a former managing director of the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria, married Fatima, the president’s daughter, in 2016 at Daura, Katsina state.
