The commission’s director of investigation requested that the chairmen come with certified true copies of comprehensive documentation relating to staff strength and payroll.

Other documents requested included details of accounts where funds are received for payment of staff salaries, details of accounts where funds are reserved for staff salaries exigencies, the statement of account of the said accounts from Jan. 1 to Date.

He said the request was made pursuant to Section 38(1);(2) of the EFCC (Establishment) Act, 2004.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the state House of Assembly had on Dec. 17 suspended the chairmen and the vice chairmen for alleged insubordination and misconduct.

The suspension reportedly followed their failure to submit their financial statements as directed by Gov. Monday Okpebholo. (NAN)
