Economic Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, informed an Abuja High Court that the former National Security Adviser’s, NSA, Office under Col Sambo Dasuki (rtd) gave former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode the sum of N26m.
EFCC claims the fund sent to Fani-Kayode was meant for some contract execution but was later got diverted.
This was disclosed through the EFCC’s operative and third Prosecution Witness, Mohammed Goji, in its ongoing case filed against Fani-Kayode.
Goji said the Commission’s witness said the money was sent to Fani-Kayode in a ‘Ghana-Must-Go’ delivered to him by his driver, Francis, and his Personal Assistant, Victor.
Led by the prosecuting counsel, Mr. Frank Abdullahi, the witness, Goji said, “My lord, we got an intelligence report about a certain amount of money running into billions of naira meant for contracts in the Office of the National Security Adviser, ONSA.
“Along the line, we discovered that N26 million was paid for media consultancy for which there was no record that the project was executed.
“We wrote a series of letters to the Office of the NSA where we got payment vouchers and proposals indicating how the said sum was paid.
“In the course of the investigation, we gathered that the defendant, Fani-Kayode, directed his domestic servants comprising of his driver by name, Francis and his personal assistant named Victor, to access the funds from the NSA.
“They took the cash sum in a ‘Ghana-Must- Go’ bag from the account section of the NSA and took it to the defendant’s residence as directed.”
The judge presiding over the case, Justice John Tsoho, after listening to both parties, adjourned the case till April 21 for continued hearing.
