The officials of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has detained the Clerk of the Ondo State House of Assembly, Mr. Bode Aladeyelu and two other civil servants.
The
anti-graft body is investigating alleged fraud in the Assembly involving
N2.4million, which was released to enable the Clerk and two others to attend a
two-day seminar organised by the National Productivity Centre, Lagos. It was
alleged that those who collected the money never attended the seminar.
The Clerk and the
two workers were said to have honoured the EFCC invitation, but they were
detained at the weekend.
Spokesman
for the Assembly, Mr. Gbenga Omole declined to comment on the matter. “I am not
answering any question. I am going to address the press tomorrow (today),” he
said.
