The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has seized two houses belonging to Senator Nenadi Usman who was the Director of Finance of the Goodluck Jonathan presidential campaign organisation.
The EFCC had arrested Usman last week after it was established that N2.5bn was paid into her firm account, Joint Trust Dimensions Limited, and N140m cash was paid into her Zenith Bank account.
The said transfer, which emanated from the Central Bank of Nigeria, took place in January 2015, during the build up to the presidential election.
It was learnt that her two houses seized by EFCC were located in Abuja.
It was reported that Usman had returned N23m to Government and also promised to return more money.
It was gathered that she had two houses in Abuja and the EFCC swiftly sealed off the buildings.
A source at the agency told Punch that, “Since she has been cooperating with us and has also returned some money, she will be granted an administrative bail. She seems to have some health challenges. Also, releasing her will give her the ability to return more funds,” the source added.
The Punch had reported that Usman had on the instruction of a former Chairman of PDP Board of Trustees, Chief Tony Anenih, transferred different sums of money to several individuals and interest groups during the build up to the last elections.
Usman allegedly transferred monies to persons through the bank account of her company.
Through the said account, the Director of Publicity of Jonathan's campaign team, Femi Fani-Kayode, got the sum of N840m. Documents showed that the money was paid into Fani-Kayode’s account.
He is said to be on the defensive but EFCC are working on all the facts before he's arrested.
