We didn’t recover $42 million in Makarfi’s farm -EFCC
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), has warned the general public to be wary of some news making the round on social media that the sum of $42 million was found in Sen. Ahmed Makarfi’s farm.
He condemned the reports as malicious, false and misleading saying, the malicious reports emanated from Innocent Onyekachi, Oritsetimeyin Akpotedja,Adjenuhgure and Adeola Sam Opeyemi with the intention of tarnishing the image of the EFCC.
This was contained in a statement signed by the commissions Head, Media and Publicity, Mr. Wilson Uwujaren.
According to the statement, the duo were alleged to have posted on their Facebook page six hours after the Supreme Court judgment that was favourable to Markafi-led faction of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), that the sum of $42 million was found in Sen. Makarfi’s farm by the EFCC.
The commission frowned at the actions of Oritsetimeyin, Adjenuhgure and Opeyemi saying, after several effort made by operatives of the anti graft agency for them to correct the report, they blatantly refused to correct it.
The statement added that the commission has considered it necessary to set the records straight by advising social media activists to be wary of the duo who according to them are out to sow seed of discord among Nigerians as there is no EFCC investigation on Senator Makarfi.
