N450m Bribery Scam: EFCC Quizzes Shinkafi, Senator by Btppolitics: 4:21pm On May 22, 2016
FORMER Governor of Zamfara State, Mamuda Aliyu Shinkafi and a Senator, Hassan Muhammed Nasiha, who is the state PDP chairman are the latest suspects interrogated by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in connection with the N23.29billion poll bribery scam.

They were questioned over the N450million allegedly allocated to the Zamfara State chapter of PDP out of the bribe sum.

The cash was said to have been handed over to the state PDP by a former Minister of State for Finance, Bashir Yuguda.

A top source in EFCC said the N450million was received by a former Secretary to the State Government (SSG) ,Aminu Ahmed Nahuce and one Alhaji Mallaha on Bashir Yuguda’s instruction.

The cash was allegedly shared in Yuguda’s house under his supervision.

Yuguda reportedly gave EFCC detectives the names of the beneficiaries of the money as ex-Governor Shinkafi (N15million) and Hassan Muhammed Nasiha, former Senator and State PDP Chairman Zamfara State and his executives N15million.

One well placed source said: “In his statement, Shinkafi alleged that he was told about the money, and promise was made to release the money to him at the appropriate time.”

“On his part, Nasiha claimed that, he only benefitted about N2million contrary to what Yuguda told EFCC that it was N15million. He said he refunded the said money to EFCC.

“But the two leaders are currently in detention to assist us in our investigation. The former governor was still making more statement as I am talking to you. He is however cooperating with us.”

The EFCC also claimed that Yuguda had released the list of other beneficiaries of the N450million.

“These are:13 Zamfara Local Government Councils N26 million each totaling N338 million. Gusau Local Government Council being the State capital was given N46 million; House of Representatives Member Bello Matawalle (N10 million); Senator Sahabi Ya’u (N5million); Malami Aliyu Yen Doto the PDP Deputy Governor candidate 2015 election (N5million); Biliya Shinkafi (N5million); Sani Birnin Magaji (N5million); Party Exco (N5million) printing of Party Tag (N6million) and Committee of Party Supervisors (N10million).
