August 24, (THEWILL) – The Director of Finance and Accounts in the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), Eno Ubi-Otu, is currently being grilled by the operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), in relation to a case of alleged diversion of over N25 billion tax remittances.
A source privy to the development, said the director, who arrived at the commission in the early hours of Wednesday, was still being interrogated as at press time.
The source disclosed that the arrest was part of a larger investigation of the forensic audit report of the NDDC.
Details of how the N25 billion was looted and how it was shared as well as the beneficiaries, are still sketchy as the Spokesman for the anti-graft agency, Wilson Uwujaren, could not be reached for confirmation.
