The group said that investigation has revealed that the said funds were not tied to
any project or programme.

According to the leader of the group, while speaking, he alleged that the funds must have been diverted for personal use at the expense of the state.

” This is the reason why we are calling on EFCC and other relevants agencies to invite the duo of Saraki and AbdulFatai to give answers to the missing of such huge amount of money that would have gone a long way in helping the state in some aspect of governance,” the group explained.

However, the missing funds came to the notice of the public after a forensic audit report was carried out under the present administration in Kwara state.

“The audit report also showed that N2bn cash withdrawals that was not tied to any project or official expenditure got missing within eight days in February 2019, barely one month to the general election, amidst other mind-boggling revelations of alleged maladministration within the period,” the group explained.
