Amaechi owns $50million EFCC found in Lagos apartment – Fani-Kayode

Former spokesperson of the Peoples Democratic party, PDP, 2015 Presidential campaign, Femi Fani-Kayode, has alleged that the $50million found in a Lagos apartment by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), belongs to the Minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi.

Recall that the anti-graft agency had on Wednesday uncovered over $50m in various currencies at a residence in Ikoyi area of Lagos State.

Reacting to the huge sum uncovered, the former Minister on his Twitter page, insisted that Amaechi owned the flat where the money was found.

He also dismissed reports that the money belonged to the National Intelligence Agency (NIA).

“The $43 million is Rotimi Amaechi’s.He owns the flat it was found in too.NIA story is fake news! NIA does not keep cash in Minister’s flats!” Fani-Kayode tweeted.

Governor Ayodele Fayose’s aide, Olayinka Lere, also claims that the money belongs to the former Rivers State Governor.

“Just hearing with one ear that Amaechi may have link to the House,” Olayinka wrote on Twitter.

“Cover up game has started! Rotimi Amaechi owns the house.”
