EFCC Begins Probe Of A Northern Governor Who Spent N300m In One Hour by Nobody: 10:06am On Nov 09, 2014
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, is currently investigating a certain governor in the North who allegedly went to a Bureau De Change in Abuja to change N300m to dollars and spent it in one hour.

According to reports, the changed money was meant to lobby party leaders for the governorship ticket for the 2015 elections.



The governor was said to have gone for the dollars in other to prevent the EFCC from trailing the bribe money.

The Bureau De Change operators were also said to be shocked by the huge transaction done by the governor.

“It is just unfortunate that a serving governor exchanged N300million for dollars in Abuja to lobby some party leaders for governorship ticket.

“After getting the dollars, he met with some officials of a party in order to sway the ‘final’ decision of the party in his favour. After about an hour, the cash was already disbursed.

“But he has forgotten that the electorate will determine his fate, not naira or dollars. His predecessor spent the same way and lost out with the party,” said a source privy to the development.

“Due to the curious nature of the transactions, the Bureau De Change operators became suspicious and raised the alarm. The operators were jittery because they could be held accountable by anti-graft commissions if the deal is uncovered,” said another source.

An agent of the EFCC also confirmed the development and said investigations are currently ongoing.

“The suspicious transactions by the governor are already being looked into. All the processes will be trailed, no hiding place for anyone again. We will also expose the beneficiaries of the illicit transactions to the relevant agencies for probe. So, the said transaction is certainly under investigation,” he said.

Government machinery always used to victimise opposition. Is a probe going to be conducted on Godswill Apkabio case of stocking dollars in his apartment in Abuja that share to government officials to buy popularity and was stollen by a ward, What about Stella Odua purchase of 2 BMW vehicle for #250m, what about the oil subsidy scam by the members of TAN, what about the money laundry case against PEJ, what about the missing oil money, what about the police pension scam and what about a probe into the immigration employment registration fee fund scam? I will suggest that an autonomy body conduct a probe into GEJ activities, there a huge scam will be discovered.
