Reports say that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission is set to extend its ongoing investigation into the $2.1 billion arms procurement scandal to the office of former Vice-President Namadi Sambo.
It was gathered on Monday that the EFCC operatives were looking into the office of the former Vice President because of some transactions that linked the office to that of the former National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd.).
There was a report two weeks ago that Destra Investment, a company owned by the National Publicity Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party, Chief Olisa Metuh, allegedly paid N25 million to a former special assistant to Sambo, Abba Dabo, on December 16, 2014.
The commission is currently investigating N1.4 billion found in the account of Metuh’s company.
Out of the N1.4 billion, N400 million was alleged to have been paid by the Office of the NSA.
