A former National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Ahmadu Adamu Mu’azu, has disowned the Lagos apartment, where operatives of the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) found more than $50million behind false walls on Wednesday.
Mu’azu made the claim while speaking to Sahara Reporters.
Akin Oyegoke who identified himself as the “Media and ICT Personal Assistant” to Mu’azu, called from London to deny the report.
“Mr Muazu does not own any house in Ikoyi except his house at Walter Carrington street, Victoria Island Lagos,” Oyegoke said.
Oyegoke, however, failed to explain why the construction firm, Etco Nigeria Limited, that built the house listed his name as a client.
For the third day in a row, the EFCC uncovered another huge sums of cash around the country.
