A video of EFCC operatives raiding an Ikoyi resident yesterday has emerged. House where over $50m was found in Ikoyi belongs to ex-PDP Chairman.
Operatives of the anti-graft agency raided an apartment in Ikoyi, Lagos state and found the huge sums.
The breakdown of the money found in the house is $43.4m, £27,800 and N23.2m.
The residential building is located at Osborne Towers, Ikoyi.
A source close to the anti-graft agency has told SaharaReporters that the building belongs to Ahmadu Adamu Mu’azu, a former National Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
Mu’azu was also the governor of Bauchi State in Nigeria between 1999 and 2007.
Sources close to Mu’azu also confirmed to SaharaReporters that the former PDP chairman owns the building.
According to the report, while in Lagos, Mu’azu lives on the penthouse on the building.
Other residents of the house are Godwin Obla, a senior lawyer and former prosecutor to EFCC, former Chief of Air Staff, Adesola Amosu, Esther Nnamdi-Ogbue, a former Managing Director at the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).
Obla was recently arrested and charged in connection with irregular payments to Justice Rita Ofili-Ajumugobia one of the judges also arrested and undergoing trial in the ongoing probe of corruption in the judicial sector.
Ogbue was one of the NNPC senior officials fired in connection with Ifeanyi Uba’s crude oil sale scandal.
