The All Progressives Congress has called in anti-corruption agencies to freeze Bayelsa accounts following alleged suspicious withdrawal of N17.5bn by government proxies recently.

Nabena categorically called on the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and the Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit to take on the task of unraveling the whereabouts of the said funds, which he alleged were withdrawn on the orders of the state governor, Chief Seriake Dickson. “In the last two weeks the Bayelsa state government has, in highly suspicious circumstances, made several withdrawals to the tune of N17.5 billion, without any corresponding project to justify the withdrawals. Insider reports we received stated that Governor Seriake Dickson approved the illegal withdrawals to fund the election of the Peoples Democratic Party governorship candidate in the state.

“When I spoke to journalists last week, I had raised alarm over the Governor openly boasting that he has the money to pay the police and army, including their retirement benefits, if they work for him in the elections.
