Abuja, Nigeria – The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has disclosed that it has so far recovered over N30 billion out of the N109 billion allegedly siphoned by the suspended Accountant-General of the Federation, Idris Ahmed.

The Chairman of the Commission, Abdulrasheed Bawa, stated this while appearing at the Ministerial Media Briefing organised by the Presidential Communications Team at the Presidential Villa, Abuja on Thursday.


Recall that Idris was arrested by the operatives of the EFCC on May 16, 2022, in connection with a series of frauds that was initially estimated at N84 billion.

Three days after his arrest, Idris was suspended by the Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning, Zainab Ahmed, to enable him to face his probe.

During questioning, Idris was said to have mentioned names, companies, and a huge amount of money which is currently under probe.
