I Have Evidence EFCC Chairman, Bawa Requesting $2 Million Bribe From Me, Says Matawalle
Zamfara State governor Bello Matawalle has claimed that the chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Abdulrasheed Bawa, allegedly requesting $2 million bribe from him. His claim came days after the EFCC boss revealed that the outgoing governor is being investigated for diverting over ₦70 billion, amongst other graft-related offences.
The EFCC, in a statement released on Friday night, also described the claim by Matawalle as a hoax. It also alerted the “public about plans by some of the alleged corrupt politically exposed persons to flee the country ahead of May 29,” the handover date, and said it “is working in close collaboration with its international partners to frustrate these escape plans and bring those involved to justice.”
