EFCC said it reopened money laundering cases involving 13 former governors & ex-ministers, totaling over N853.8bn, with at least N772.2bn in high-profile cases, alongside an investigation into N81.6bn allegedly embezzled from the Ministry of Humanitarian Affairs.
Apparently,
$2.2 billion is said to have been misappropriated through money laundering linked to former officials, including Sambo Dasuki and Raymond Dokpesi. The EFCC claims this money was meant for arms procurement in the fight against terrorism but was diverted instead.

A case that indicted most politicians
👇👇
Matawalle, current Defense Minister, is probed for N70bn money laundering scheme. Fayemi, ex-Minister of Solid Minerals 2015 to 2018, is also under investigation for a N4bn fraud. Similarly, former Ekiti State Gov Fayose is being investigated for a supposed N6.9bn fraud.

Nnamani is being probed for an alleged N5.3bn fraud; Chime is being investigated over an alleged N450m campaign fraud as part of the N23bn allegedly shared by a former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke, while Adamu is under probe for N15bn fraud.
👇👇
Kwakwanso is investigated for not remitting N10bn in pension funds; Orji faces scrutiny for suspected N551bn money laundering; Odili is under investigation for alleged N100bn fraud, but his case’s status is uncertain due to a court injunction from March 2008.
👇👇
Goje is under investigation for N5bn fraud, Wammako for N15bn diversion, Sylva for N19.2bn money laundering, and Lamido for N1.35bn fraud.
Was the new EFCC chairman unaware of these cases when he boldly stated he would resign if he didn’t prosecute Yahaya Bello of Kogi State?
