The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has interrogated Ali Modu Sheriff, the embattled chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
Sheriff was grilled at the office of the EFCC on Wednesday, June 15 in Maiduguri, Borno state.
Sheriff was implicated in the disbursement of $115m (N23bn) which emanated from Madueke and it was reported that Borno state got N450 million.
Sheriff has opened up about the allegations through his spokesman, Inuwa Bwala.
He said: “You may recall that reports last week indicated that former Minister of State for Power, Mohammed Wakil and former minority leader in the House of Representatives, Mohammed Kumalia, claimed to have earmarked N40million from money given to them by the PDP for elections for security men.
“He (Sheriff) seized the opportunity of his condolence visit to Maiduguri to verify their claims, and was informed that they only claimed to have shared the money to security men in his house, but without his personal involvement whatsoever. This is the truth.”
