The Nation reports that an embargo was placed on the account as a result of the anti-graft agency’s investigation into the alleged N4 billion campaign funds received from ex-President Goodluck Jonathan in the build-up to the 2015 elections.
The funds, which were alleged to have been withdrawn from the Central Bank of Nigeria, were shared to 10 other directors, directorates, zonal directors and state directors of the Presidential Campaign Organization of Jonathan.
In spite of being touted as the chief beneficiary of the largesse, Fani-Kayode maintains that he knows nothing about the withdrawal of the cash from the CBN or funding of the campaign by the former National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki.
The biggest recipients of the funds are – Fani-Kayode (N840million); Goodluck Support Group (N320million); Achike Udenwa and Viola Onwuliri (N350million); Nenadi Usman (N140million); and Okey Ezenwa (N100million), Ynaija reports.
The beneficiaries are at some point, expected to be arrested for questioning by the anti-graft agency.
In a statement released on Friday, in Abuja entitled “The Money Transfers and the Truth about the Presidential Campaign Funds”, Fani-Kayode admitted that campaign funds were paid into the account of a company linked with a former Minister of Finance, Nenadi Usman, from where it was shared to him and others.
Fani-Kayode also said he received funds from ex-President Jonathan and he is accountable only to the former leader and not the EFCC.
