NORTH-CENTRAL governor is under probe for allegedly withdrawing N60 billion in cash in six years, Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) Executive Chairman Abdulrasheed Bawa has confirmed.
The fraud, according to him, was uncovered by the newly-created Department of Intelligence under his administration.
He spoke of plans to update Nigerians on the behind-the-scene investigations bordering on cybercrime and politically exposed persons (PEPs), adding that the agency has secured 1,576 convictions within 11 months.
Bawa’s disclosures were contained in an interview published in EFCC Alert, an in-house journal of the commission.
Although the interview was said to have been granted to Television Continental (TVC), the transcript was published in the magazine.
