Former NDDC boss relinquishes N250 million to Nigerian government – EFCC
A former Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), has relinquished an entirety of N250,000,000 to the Federal Government.
This is as indicated by an announcement delivered by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission on Friday.
Notwithstanding, the EFCC didn’t uncover the name of the former Managing Director in the announcement.
Justice Rilwan Aikawa of the Federal High Court sitting in Lagos, as of late conceded the last relinquishment of the cash, in light of an application for definite relinquishment of the store by the Lagos zonal office of the EFCC, the announcement, marked by representative Dele Oyewale, said.
The EFCC had moved toward the court, looking for the relinquishment of the store, contending that it was followed, recouped, and sensibly associated to be part with the returns of unlawful exercises.
An examination by the Commission uncovered that a temporary worker with the NDDC got assets for an indicated agreement and moved N250 million, suspected as payoffs, to a land organization, for the obtaining of a property for the former MD of the NDDC.
The EFCC, “outfitted with enough statistical data points associated with the exchange, moved toward the court for the relinquishment of the cash to the administration.
“Justice Aikawa allowed the request for conclusive relinquishment in like manner.”
