The Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission has frozen the bank account of a company belonging to a
former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Chief Olu Falae,
The PUNCH has learnt.
It was gathered that the account with
the United Bank for Africa titled Marecco Nigeria Limited with number
1000627022, was frozen as part of investigations into the N4bn disbursed
by the Goodluck Jonathan Campaign Organisation during the build-up to
the 2015 presidential election.
This is just as the EFCC detained a
former Minister of Aviation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, on Monday for
receiving N840m from the campaign funds. The ex-minister, who arrived
at the EFCC headquarters at 9.45am was still being quizzed as of
8.40pm.
Both Falae and Fani-Kayode were accused
of receiving N940m from the Director of Finance of the campaign
organisation, Senator Nenadi Usman, during the build-up to the election.
