Nigeria's Anti-graft Agency Freezes Oyo Assembly's Account Over Alleged N1.3 Billion Fraud | Sahara Reporters

The Economic Financial and Crimes Commission on Tuesday froze the account of the Oyo State House of Assembly over alleged embezzlement of N1.3 billion by the Assembly members.

Some of the official cars bought from the questionable fund, according to the petition to EFCC, were said to have developed mechanical faults less than six months after they were delivered to the legislators. An unconfirmed source at the Assembly said the EFCC is widening its net to include constituency allocation funds, running costs, and others.

The source also said the EFCC picked up some top officials of the House on Monday, July 26 in the early hours of the day and grilled them for several hours.

Doncastroy1 Because it’s a PDP state… last time I check they haven’t arrest or freezes any APC members account.. stupid set of people
