The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) says over N30 billion was recovered from the suspended Accountant-General of the Federation (AGF), Idris Ahmed.

This was disclosed by EFCC Chairman, Abdulrasheed Bawa, on Thursday, at a media briefing organized by the Presidential Communications Team at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

The anti-graft body listed other recoveries as N134,33,759,574.25, $121,769,076.30, £21,020.00, €156,925.00, ¥21,350.00, CFA300,000.00, from January to December, 2022.

He added that over 3,615 convictions were recorded within the period as the administration takes its anti-corruption programme very seriously.

Bawa also stated that the recent nationwide auction of forfeited vehicles will be followed by the disposal of over 150 houses to interested buyers. He assured the nation that as soon as the Special Control Unit against Money Laundering (SCMUL) becomes fully functional it would become difficult for criminals to launder money.
