Accountant-General of the Federation, Mr. Ahmed Idris is currently in the custody of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission due to the alleged misappropriation of N80 billion.

According to report, Mr. Idris became arrested after declining an invitation by the commission. The spokesperson of the EFCC, Wilson Uwujaren revealed that a reliable source informed the agency about the fraudulent act. According to him, the source revealed how Mr. Idris laundered public funds through dubious means.

Furthermore, he disclosed that the stolen funds were wired through a real estate set up in Abuja and Kanu. Uwujaren added that the refusal of the Accountant-General to honor the invitation of EFCC incurred his arrest.

Recently, news about the misappropriation of close to N80bn surfaced with heavy links to the office of the Accountant-General. The development prompted the commission to send an invitation to Mr. Ahmed Idris. A call he refused to honor until his arrest.
