Former Chairman of Daar Communications Plc and a former governor of Sokoto State, Alhaji Attahiru Bafarawa have been asked to explain to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC why they received large sums of money from the office of the former National Security Adviser, NSA, Col Sambo Dasuki.
According to EFCC sources, over two billion naira was traced to Dokpesi from the office of the former NSA while Bafarawa allegedly received N100m from the same source.
“A whopping sum of N2.1 billion was traced from the office of the embattled former NSA to Dokpesi without any clearly stated reason and we want to know what he received the huge sum of public funds for. We have also traced some money to the former Sokoto governor, Bafarawa, and we need to know what he got such money from the former security adviser for,” said an EFCC source.
Dokpesi and Bafarawa who arrived at the EFCC around 12pm on Tuesday have now swelled the ranks of 22 other suspects arrested for receiving various sums of money from the office of the former NSA and may be prosecuted with them.
