The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has frozen one of the accounts of the former Aviation Minister Femi Fani-Kayode as it steps up investigation into the alleged N4billion
campaign bazaar cash received from ex-President Goodluck Jonathan in the build-up to the 2015 elections.The funds were allegedly withdrawn from the Central Bank of Nigeria(CBN) and shared to
10 other directors, directorates, zonal directors and state directors of the Presidential Campaign Organization of Jonathan.Fani-Kayode declared yesterday that he knew nothing about the withdrawal of the cash from the CBN or funding of the campaign by the former National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki.But he admitted that campaign funds were paid into the account of a company linked with a former Minister of Finance, Mrs. Nenadi Usman, from where it was shared to him and others.He dared the EFCC to “do their worse” in a statement in Abuja entitled “The Money Transfers and the Truth about the Presidential Campaign Funds.”The beneficiaries may be arrested for questioning by the anti-graft agency.
