President Muhammadu Buhari's war on corruption appears to be gathering momentum as the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC has frozen the bank accounts of some of former President Goodluck Jonathan's associates. The move is reportedly to prevent the movement of alleged looted funds out of those accounts.
A source close to the government of the day told Sunday Punch that the move became necessary given the mind-boggling theft of public resources by the affected people.
The frozen accounts according to Sunday Punch are Keketobou Foundation run by Jonathan's Special Adviser on Niger Delta and coordinator of the Amnesty Program, Mr Kingsley Kuku, Mieka Divers Ltd and Global West Vessels Ltd operated by former warlord Government Ekpemukpolo, aka Tompolo, Maritime University, Okerenkoko, the contract of which is being handled by Mr Kime Engozi. Other accounts linked to Mr Engozi are reportedly flagged also.
The account of NIMASA Technical College, Okoloba and accounts linked to former Director General of NIMASA, Dr Patrick Akpobolokemi are also reported to have been frozen by the anti corruption agency.
Some of the affected individuals are already being investigated by the EFCC.
