EFCC operatives have reportedly found N5 billion lodged in an account
operated by the daughter of an Army General. According to an official in
the antigraft agency who spoke on condition of anonymity to The Sun, investigations so far carried out into the account, showed that N10 million was sometimes deposited 5 to 6 times within a day.
The source stated that the Army general's daughter is
under 30 and recently got married. The account officer, a lady who
manages the account was subsequently invited by the EFCC. She gave
useful information which led to the invitation of the Army General’s
daughter towards the last week of August. The source stated that she
pleaded for more time to enable her attend to her infant child.
The young nursing mother eventually turned up with her mother, baby,
husband and lawyer about two weeks ago. And for two days, she faced
interrogation though she was not detained because she is a nursing
mother.
“Details of the account show that cash deposits of about N10 million
were consistently paid into the account sometimes five or six times a
day. The money so far deposited into that account and another in London
should well be over N5 billion”, the source said.
Investigators also discovered that even though the lady was still a
student in the United Kingdom, hundreds of thousands of Pound Sterling
were wired into the bank account of a London based firm’s bank account
for her. The firm, Carrington Whyte Consulting with Flat 4, Grove End
Gardens 33 Grove End Road NW8 9LL London, as its address, was curiously
registered around June 2014 and shortly after, the funds began to hit
its bank account from Nigeria in torrents.
Though the Army General’s daughter is currently on administrative bail,
she is however, expected to report back for further interrogation next
week.
“We had to study her last statements, juxtapose them with our findings
and draw up fresh questions for her and with which we confront her next
week”, the source explained.
