Famous businessman, Mompha has launched a scathing attack on the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), labeling them as “useless” and “Nigeria’s most corrupt organization.”
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Mompha’s outburst comes in response to the EFCC’s recent report, which alleged that a staggering N35 billion was discovered in his bank account.
The report quoted a witness, Idi Musa, an investigator with the EFCC, testifying in court that the massive sum was found in two bank accounts linked to Mompha.
The witness’s testimony was part of the ongoing trial of Mompha, who is facing money laundering charges alongside his company, Ismalob Global Investment Limited.
The EFCC had arraigned Mompha on an eight-count charge, including conspiracy to launder funds obtained through unlawful activity, retention of proceeds of criminal conduct, and failure to disclose assets and property, among others. Mompha’s trial has been ongoing since January 2022, with the recent testimony from the EFCC’s witness shedding new light on the case.
The report reads:
“The sixth prosecution witness, PW6, Idi Musa, in the trial of Ismaila Mustapha, (a.k.a Mompha) an investigator with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on Monday, July 1, 2024, told Justice Mojisola Dada of the Special Offences Court sitting in Ikeja, Lagos how the sum of N35bn was fou in two bank accounts linked to the defendant.
The Lagos Zonal Command of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, had, on January 12, 2022, arraigned Mompha alongside his company, Ismalob Global Investment Limited, on an eight-coun charge bordering on conspiracy to launder funds obtained through unlawful activity, retention of proceeds of criminal conduct, laundering of funds obtained through unlawful activity, failure to disclose assets and property, possession of documents containing false pretenses and use of property derive from unlawful act.”
