According to EFCC Chairman Ola Olukoyede, Mamman was arrested around 3:30 a.m. on Tuesday in Kaduna.
On May 7, a court convicted Saleh Mamman on all 12 charges filed against him by the EFCC.
A Federal High Court in Abuja sentenced him to 75 years in prison for fraud and money laundering involving N33.8 billion.
The trial judge, James Omotosho, handed Mamman seven-year prison terms on 10 counts, three years on another count, and two years on the final count.
The judge ordered that the sentences be served one after another rather than at the same time.
He also held that there would be no option of fine for most of the charges, except for count four, where Mamman was given the option of paying a N10 million fine.
The court further ordered the seizure of foreign currencies recovered during the investigation, alongside four luxury properties in Abuja linked to the former minister.
The court directed that foreign currencies recovered during the investigation, as well as four high-end properties in Abuja connected to the former minister, be confiscated.
Justice Omotosho directed security agencies to work with Interpol to track down and arrest the convict.
The court added that the prison sentence would begin from the day Mamman is arrested.
