EFCC has the right — SERAP Confirming the story yesterday, EFCC spokesman, Wilson Uwujaren, said there was nothing strange in asking for records of the state’s security council meetings which allegedly authorised withdrawal of over N23 billion for security purposes. He noted that the anti-graft agency was investigating the accounts of Benue State government, having noticed consistent massive withdrawals, which the agency suspected were for money laundering. Uwujaren declined to give further details, pointing out that investigators have the right to demand for any document that could help them in their investigation or prove their suspicion of money laundering to the contrary. However, Executive Director of Social Economic Rights and Accountability Project, SERAP, Tokunbo Mumuni, said: “The government has the responsibility to supply such information and hand over whatever it needs to help it dispense its constitutional duties. “So, there is nothing wrong for the body to request for such information, especially if the security matters deliberated have corrupt dealings. It is entitled to ask for it and the government should supply it for effective investigation.”]]>
