President Muhammadu
Buhari says all those found culpable in the Ikoyi cash scandal will be
punished.
The
president said this while receiving a report of the panel established to review
the operational, technical and administrative structure of the National
Intelligence Agency (NIA).
Buhari
described the discovery of monies in the flat as ‘‘unfortunate incident which
rightly aroused public interest and outcry”.
The
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) had uncovered $43, 449, 947,
£27, 800 and N23, 218, 000 at Osborne Towers, Ikoyi, Lagos, in April.
Buhari
said those found guilty would be made to give an account of the discovered
monies.
‘‘All
the circumstances surrounding the obtaining, keeping custody and disbursement
of the funds have been examined by the vice-president’s committee and all those
found to be culpable will be made to account and appropriately sanctioned,” he
said.
