EFCC Arrests Bauchi State Accountant General, Sirajo Jaja for alleged N70bn Fraud

Governor Bala Mohammed’s accountant general, Sirajo Jaja was arrested today in Abuja alongside Aliyu Abubakar of Jasfad Resources Enterprise, an unlicensed bureau de change (BDC) operator and Sunusi Ibrahim Sambo, a Point of Sale (PoS) operator.

They were arrested in connection with investigations of money laundering, diversion of public funds and missapropriation to the tune of N70 billion.

The Commission is also investigating the Governor of Bauchi State, Bala Mohammed, regarding the matter.

The EFCC said investigations showed that cash withdrawal of N59billion had been made through various bank accounts opened and operated by the Accountant General on behalf of the state government.

The money was allegedly moved to Abubakar and Sambo, who in turn made cash payments to party agents and associates of the governor.

The BDC operator, Abubakar, earlier jumped bail and has now been rearrested.
