DSS CONDUCTS SEARCH ON SUSPENDED EFCC CHAIRMAN’S HOME, EXTENDS PROBE TO ASSOCIATES

Operatives of the Department of State Services, DSS have conducted a  search of the Abuja home and office of the suspended Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC Abdulrasheed Bawa.

The secret police, also during the week, invited Bawa’s close associates in the EFCC for questioning, over alleged mismanagement, misappropriation and diversion of proceeds of sold assets forfeited to the EFCC.

However, the spokesperson for the DSS, Dr Peter Afunanya, has declined to comment on this issue.

Bawa, who is currently being held in the custody of the DSS in Abuja, is being probed for alleged financial impropriety as EFCC cahirman.

The DSS has yet to file charges against the embattled EFCC boss as investigation continues.

The spokesperson for the EFCC, Wilson Uwujaren, is also yet to make a comment over this development
