N1.3 Trillion Fraud: EFCC Arrests Delta Accountant General, Others
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arrested the Accountant General of Delta State, Mrs. Joy Enwa, as part of its ongoing investigation into the alleged diversion of N1.3 trillion state funds by former Governor Ifeanyi Okowa.
“We are investigating the alleged diversion of N1.3 trillion state funds, and Mrs. Enwa’s arrest is part of that investigation,” said Dele Oyewale, EFCC spokesman.
When contacted, Enwa declined to comment on her arrest and detention.
SaharaReporters quoted her as saying; “I am not the right source to confirm such story from. Why don’t you reach out to the commission to give you details of my arrest and detention if at all I was actually arrested and detained by the commission?” she said.
But EFCC’S Oyewale confirmed that Enwa was arrested and detained for several days before being released.
“Yes, the accountant general was arrested and detained by the commission for some days before she was released. We also arrested some officials of the state government but they have been released as well,” he stated.
The EFCC is investigating Okowa for allegedly using his office to loot and acquire assets worth up to N1.3 trillion, including shares in UTM Floating Liquefied Natural Gas Company, the report reads.
