The Ex-Minister of State for Defense, Musiliu Obanikoro, who is said to be
on the run, had purchased a home in Gwinnett County in Georgia, United
States of America in 2014.
He is said to be hiding from EFCC after new details reveal his accounts received questionable funds.
The anti-corruption agency (EFCC) said they have received more evidence
linking Obanikoro with the infamous Ekitigate election scandal of June
2014 and the related plot to rig the Osun election.
According to SR source, the commission obtained financial transaction
information and witness testimonies connecting Obanikoro with a group of
companies which received at least N1.45billion to rig the two
governorship elections last year.
The N1.45billion was allegedly funneled into the accounts of five
companies, all of which were under the control of Obanikoro. The
evidence of these transactions emerged from EFCC interrogations of ten
suspects connected with the $2.1billion arms scandal involving the
office NSA, Sambo Dasuki.
