Former President Goodluck Jonathan’s embattled ex-Aide-de-Camp (ADC) Col. Ojogbane Adegbe has washed his hands off the N10 billion cash shared to Peoples Democratic Party, PDP delegates before the party's last presidential primaries.
According to a source close to the investigation, Adegbe told the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC to ask the former President's erstwhile Special Assistant on Domestic Affairs, Waripamowei Dudafa to account for the cash.
He said that the suitcases containing the cash were brought to him as messages for the President and he handed them over to Dudafa in accordance with military law which forbade him to open messages meant for the Commander in Chief except where otherwise instructed.
“The ADC has spoken with investigators. He said when the suit cases containing the N10 billion were brought as messages for the ex-President, he did not open them but he handed over the items to SA Domestic Affairs.
“He said as ADC, the military law forbids him from opening any message meant for the President, unless directed by the C-I-C.
“So, it is only the SA Domestic Affairs, who has sneaked out of the country, who will need to provide the list of beneficiaries. This is the status of the case.
“If Dudafa does not show up, we may declare him wanted in connection with the N10 billion cash or seek the court’s permission to attach his property.
“We are exploring mutual legal assistance with some countries to fish out Dudafa wherever he is hiding abroad,” said an EFCC source.
