The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), has allegedly discovered a head reeling sum of over N2.5billion in the bank account opened in the name of a former female minister’s house maid.
The discovery according to EFCC investigators has led the agency to the unnamed former influential minister who it is believed, opened the bank account in the name of her house help in a bid to cover her tracks.
Reports say the former minister is the sole signatory to the account.
According to reports, a placed EFCC source disclosed Saturday, that the former minister would be brought to book.
“Our findings indicated that the ex-female minister opened an account in the name of her housemaid and with her photograph. But the signature in the account is that of the ex-minister”, the source said.
“At the time we made the discovery, over N2.5billion was in the account. But the volume of transactions in the account has been huge.
“We are suspecting that the ex-minister did not put the housemaid in the picture of what she wanted to do with her passport photograph.
“We have established that the ex-minister has been drawing funds from the said account. We have retrieved records of all transactions by the ex-Minister. We will soon bring her to justice no matter how long it takes to follow due process”.
I hope the EFCC is investigating the driver, gate man, cook, laundry man, etc…because who knows, more money might just be in their accounts smh.
This one na story, let them reveal the name of the minister let us know. EFCC stop feeding us lies.
Manny the long lost MDB’er
