The father reported his son over questionable money
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC Kaduna Zonal
office has investigated a case of conspiracy and theft reported to the
Commission by an exceptional father.
The father (name witheld) in April 2017 became a whistle blower
after his son (then a secondary school student) intimated him that he
had bought a house and a shop valued over N2 Million (Two Million Naira)
only.
The information of the purchase shocked the father beyond his
imagination as such he decided to make a formal complain to the
Commission having perceived signs of fraud from his son’s explanantion
of how he got the money.
His son, Adamu, said he got the money through his phone line which
after purchase he began receiving alerts running into millions of Naira.
Investigations into the matter began immediately and all parties
involved were invited accordingly and their statements were taken as the
principal accused person mentioned two other accomplicies in the crime.
In the course of investigations, it was discovered that Adamu
withdrew monies in bits from a First Bank account number 3033389599
owned by one Porong Daniel Nash (a farmer in plateau state); and
credited same to different accounts.
Consequently, all accused persons where arrested and recoveries
were made to the tune of N939,000 (Nine Hundred and Thirty Nine Thousand
Naira) only of which same was returned to the rightful owner by the
Zonal Office.
