EFCC accuses governor of withdrawing N60bn from state account

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has accused a northern governor of personally withdrawing N60 billion cash from a state treasury.

This was revealed in the latest EFCC Alert, which also disclosed that the governor is from the North Central but did not give his name.

Chairman of the EFCC , Abdulrasheed Bawa, who spoke in the latest edition of the magazine said, “I can tell you for free that the new Department of Intelligence that we have created is working wonders.

“They have come up with a lot of intelligence. In one of them, a governor in a North-Central state within the last six years (one individual) has withdrawn over N60 billion in cash.

”We are looking at all of that, and I assure you that at the end of all of our investigations, Nigerians are going to be briefed of what we are doing behind the scene on cybercrime, politically exposed persons as well as engaging government agencies to ensure that we have better processes and procedures on how to do government business.”
