REVEALED: How Fayose’s Man Spread Money Into Accounts

Latest revelations have shown that Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose’s associate Abiodun Agbele wired the sum of N1.35billion into three different accounts to pay for four of the five duplexes the governor allegedly bought in Lagos.

The fifth duplex, which cost about N200million, is located in the federal capital, Abuja.

According to detectives, the laundering of the cash was staggered to cover up the details from the prying eyes of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).





But the EFCC still uncovered the lodgments in the following accounts:

FCMB belonging to Siqnachor (0519693019), 

First Bank of Nigeria (1000070240) and 

Zenith Bank (1014016919) of Still Earth Limited.

The owner of Still Earth Limited, Oyindamola Adeyemi, has claimed that her company neither secured a contract from Fayose, nor offered him kickback.

The facts on how Fayose, through his detained associate Agbele, paid for the duplexes are now contained in EFCC's official documents.

A top source said: “The payments were effected through De-Privateer Limited, which is owned by Agbele. The governor and his associate knew that they were involved in money laundering and they cleverly opted to stagger the funds.

“We have retrieved the list of lodgments made by De-Privateer into three accounts, including FCMB belonging to Siqnachor (0519693019), First Bank of Nigeria (1000070240) and Zenith Bank (1014016919) of Still Earth Limited.

The breakdown of some of the remittances is as follows: 

First Bank—N40m (29/1/15); N39.5m (30/1/15); N132.5 (30/1/ 15); N3.2m (4/2/15); N980, 000(4/2/15); N200m (17/2/15); N47m (13/2/15); N50m (13/2/15).

The lodgments in an account in Zenith Bank (1014016919) include N42.5m (9/4/15); N25m (23/4/15); and N229m (6/3/15).

Agbele, also through De-Privateer, paid N200million into the account of Siqnachor Integrated Limited in FCMB (0519693019) on March 9, 2015.

The EFCC source added: “You can see what Fayose did with state funds within the first six months in office. This is just a segment of our ongoing investigation of the governor.

“We are yet to shift focus to other areas where state funds were diverted into personal use or associates’ accounts.”

Responding to a question, the source said: “We are going ahead with Friday’s interaction with three more people on the five properties bought by the governor.”
