EFCC has this to say again, N1.4bn Has Been Traced To Account Linked To Olisa Metuh

Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) have traced the sum of N1.4bn to the account of a company said to be linked with Peoples Democratic Party spokesman, Olisa Metuh

The company, Destra Investment Limited had N6.67 million account balance as at November 24, 2014, but by December 2015, the balance "magically" grew to N1.4billion.

According to sources, the EFCC found out that Destra Investment Limited funded PDP activities, including its 2015 campaign.

Here's a breakdown of some of the deposits to the account: 
N400million from the Office of National Security Adviser (ONSA) on November 24th, 2014; N253million ( December 2nd and 4th, 2014) from Ibrahim Kabiru whose identity was yet to be confirmed; N91million on 2nd December 2014 from Capital Field Investment; and N92million on 3rd December 2014 from Etonye Oyintoneife.

A source in EFCC told The News that: “We will invite Metuh any moment from now for clarifications on some of these transactions in this firm, which he allegedly owns.

“By December 2015, the owner of Destra had a turnover of over N1.4billion. There is no document to show that the company executed any job for ONSA. All companies engaged by ONSA appeared before the initial Special Investigative Panel raised by the Presidency.

“Other documents indicated that Metuh was allegedly on a monthly unexplained stipend of N4million cash from ONSA.

“Out of the funds in Destra account, N25million was paid to Abba Dabo, a former Senior Special Assistant Political to former Vice President Namadi Sambo on the 16th of December 2014.

“Also, about N21,776,000 was remitted on 4th December 2014 to an account allegedly belonging to a former Minister of Works, Chief Tony Anenih; N31.5million to his media aide and N50 million to Metuh/Kanayo on the same transaction date.

“We have also established a link between Capital Field Investment and SEI Societe d’equipments Internanaux-Niamey-Niger BP 11737 which was hired by ONSA to purchase €3,654,121million security vehicles for the Republic of Niger in October 2013 and April 2014.”

EFCC investigators have assembled their documents and set to pick up Metuh.
