Jonathan’s Ex-ADC Arrested by EFCC
Category: Nigeria National News
Former aide-de-camp to former president Goodluck Jonathan, Col. Ojogbane
Adegbe has said another Dasukigate may be imminent if he reveals what
transpired in that administration.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) picked up Adegbe on
Wednesday in Lagos where he was interrogated before he was flown to
Abuja yesterday.
It was gathered that ongoing interrogation of the former ADC by
operatives of the EFCC could open up a new can of worms, which “could
surpass what is now called Dasukigate.”
EFCC sources said the former ADC may soon give details of all he
knows with regards to financial transactions and the dramatic personae
involved in the last administration.
Preliminary findings, including recovered documents, were said to have
hinted of large-scale questionable expenditure with funds sourced from
and outside the arms purchase deals.
Another source said “most of the funds were reportedly diverted soon
after the election was postponed from the originally scheduled date of
February 14, 2015 to March 28, 2015…”
Among the active participants in the alleged sleaze, was a top
official of an agency set up to discourage militancy in the South-South,
who is currently outside the country.
At the centre of the interrogation of the former ADC, who has been
moved to Abuja, Daily Sun gathered, was the “mind-boggling spending”
during the two weeks’ extension of the general election, “which runs
into several trillions of naira, when converted from foreign currency.”
Sources said many top Nigerians, “including some very close persons”
to the former president, may likely be called to explain and defend
their roles in the handling of the funds, a chunk of which was sourced
from the agency.
