A report by Daily Trust indicates that the EFCC has submitted a report to the presidency on the N15billion it recovered in a flat in Ikoyi, Lagos on Wednesday, April 12.
According to the report, the anti-graft agency’s report to the presidency gave details of the discoveries made during the operation and the origin of the money. The fund recovered by operatives of the EFCC was made up of $43.4 million, £27,000 and N23million totalling N15 billion.
The National Intelligence Agency (NIA) had lay claim to the money, which it said was approved for covert operations by the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan, before the 2015 general elections.
Rivers state governor, Nyesom Wike also claimed that the money belongs to the state, and gave the federal government seven days ultimatum to return the money to River state coffers, TheNewsGuru.com reported recently.
