Political Support Group Charges EFCC to Account For the Missing N6trilion Under Bawa Watch.

 


A Powerful Political  Organisation " Tinubu/Shettima Amalgamated Support Group" has waged another war of wards with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission EFCC by asking the Anti-Graft Agencies to account for the N6trilion allegedly missing under Abdulrasheed Bawa Watch. 


The group was responding to the commencement of investigations into alleged corruption cases at the state level by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission EFCC. 


The group made the call shortly after a meeting of its executives on Thursday, 18th May 2023 during which discussions were made on the series of invitation letters sent to various political office holders across the states of the Federation by the efcc this week. 


The Support Group also accused the Executive Chairman of the EFCC Abdulrasheed Bawa of travelling to lesser Hajj with his wife, children, parents and other family members about a month ago and stayed in Jedda and Mecca in Sheraton Hotels which cost about $15,000 per room for 10 days where  he paid for 6 rooms. 

The group alleged that Abdulrasheed Bawa expended the sum of about $300,000 on accommodation alone for the trip.


The group also demanded Bawa to explain to the public how the trip was funded and how payments were made for the accommodation in Mecca and Jedda.


The Chairman of the Amalgamated Support organisation Malam Bukar Mohammed said the efcc Chairman should stop chasing shadows in the name of investigating economic crimes in states, but to include federal government institutions in the investigations. 


He said economic crimes are also being perpetrated by top government functionaries at the federal level and the efcc's search light  should also be beamed on the activities of the federal governmen tinstitutions, including the efcc. 


Malam Bukar said the group noted with dismay, how Bawa was being remote controlled from the villa in the discharge of his responsibility and the way his officers were being accused of stealing the confiscated assets.


The Chairman said the group wondered why the chairman of the efcc has special interest in investigating states affairs, when there was even more economic damages at the federal level. 


He cited examples with the Central Bank of Nigeria, the Attorney General of the Federation, Mamman Daura, Tundi Sabiu and other closed allies of President Muhammadu Buhari.


Mr Bukar Mohammed alledged that Buhari cabals like Mamman Daura, Sabiu Tunde, Ministers of Justice and Education, the Gov of the Central Bank Mr Emefiele, Sarki Abba, former DG of the SSS Lawal Daura and other top federal government functionaries have questions to answer and should not be speared in the efcc's investigations, if at all the investigations are true, fare, credible and acceptable to all Nigerians.


The group Chairman therefore stressed the need for the efcc Chairman to publish letters of invitation to the people mentioned above in this report, including the President himself to clear himself up of the series of allegations of wrong doing or misrule.
