Barely one week after the freezing of the personal account of Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, is set to probe Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State, over the withdrawal of over N11 billion from the Government’s account that occurred between October 2015 and February 2016.

According to a report published by Punch, the anti-graft agency was directed by the Attorney General of the Federation, AGF, and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, to conduct the investigation.

The Director of Finance and Administration of the Rivers State Government House, Kingsley Fubara, allegedly withdrew the funds from the Government’s Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, account.

According to an EFCC source, roughly N5.1 billion was withdrawn by Fubara in ten tranches between October and December 2015.

He withdrew another N6.1 billion from the same account in eleven tranches between January and February 2016.

The EFCC will also be investigating another suspicious transaction in which N1.5 billion was transferred from the government’s CBN account to a Zenith Bank account, belonging to one Samuel Anya in January 2016.

“We were also asked to investigate the withdrawal of N1.5 billion on or about January 27, 2016 by one Samuel Anya of 69B Forces Avenue, old GRA, Port Harcourt, Rivers State, from the State’s account with CBN through the transfer of the money to his account 0248922015 with Zenith Bank,” an EFCC source disclosed.

Rivers State Commissioner for Information and Communications Austin Tam-George, denied the allegations made by the EFCC.

“It is clear that the EFCC is now a fully integrated unit of the All Progressives Congress with the sole mandate of hunting down opposition politicians and critics of the federal government,” he said.

“When will this embarrassing media roulette they call anti-corruption come to an end?”.

This development is the latest scandal to rock the Rivers State government.

You are very funny. How can you freez the account of governors on your side. When there are enough corrupt governors in PDP. If I were Buhari no matter how you cry I will never touch anybody in APC, I will only prosecute PDP members. PDP is a rotten egg.
