Uboh said that the documents submitted were prepared under the
chairmanship of Lamorde, adding that total recoveries to be remitted as
confirmed by EFCC are 1.995 Trillion + 48.9 Billion + 7.3 Billion +
.4 Billion = N 2.051 Trillion. He asked, “after recovering over 2 trillion,
how did the funds melt away?
He further alleged that in defrauding the Nation of seized funds from
corrupt Nigerians under investigation, EFCC under Lamorde also
indulges in doctoring of Bank Accounts and diversion of already seized loots.
He said, "two access bank recovery account statements tendered herein show
Opening balances of -0- as of 1, July 2004, but no transaction occurred
until June/July 2008 respectively. These transactions are expunged
Where are the funds deposited between July 2004 and June/July, 2008?“
EFCC diverted and concealed N779 Million Naira of recoveries from Tafa
Balogun in its record (aggregate should be 3,037,255,521.60 –
not 2,258,100,516.98); Instead of transferring 3.3 billion from Spring
bank to its Access bank recovery account, EFCC transferred only 2.2
billion and concealed it by understating the summation of the balances
in the various accounts hence the access bank statement had 2.2 Billion
Naira after the concealment”In conclusion, he urged the committee to
make the Federal Government compel EFCC to remit 2.051 Trillion to
the Federal Government of Nigeria.
He added, “Access bank should be compelled to bring complete and
unadulterated statements from 2004 till date.“Aminu Ibrahim and co,
Auditors, should be compelled to come and shed light on discrepancies
in its records and that of the already traced EFCC accounts.
In reaction to Uboh's submissions, the Committee Chairman,
Sam Anyanwu, acknowledged that the allegations are very serious,
noting that the Committee is on a fact-finding mission and not out
to run any agency down. It assures that it will look into the matter.
