The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC is set to invite the wife of the Ekiti State Governor, Mrs. Feyistan Fayose for questioning over the sum of N100m paid into an account operated in her name and her husband’s.
The anti-graft agency disclosed that the money which was paid into the account operated by the couple emanated from the account of the Office of the National Security Adviser, ONSA.
EFCC further revealed that the amount was paid on June 17, 2014, less than a week to the Ekiti Governorship polls into Spotless Investment Limited’s account operated with Zenith Bank Plc.
According to an EFCC detective, “N100m was paid into the Spotless Investment Limited account with number 1010170969 at Zenith Bank. The two signatories are Fayose, with Bank Verification Number 22338867502, and his wife, Helen Olayemi, with BVN 22298990256”.
The account implicated has since been frozen by the EFCC.
The source further added that the Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose cannot be brought in for questioning by the EFCC because of his immunity status but “His wife, however, has no immunity”.
