According to the EFCC FFK has refused the invitation of the commission.

The Nation reports that a source said “All attempts by our operatives to locate the whereabouts  of Mr. Fani-Kayode have failed because he has not only switched off his phones, he has virtually gone underground,

“We will fish him out wherever he is. Having been watch-listed by the EFCC,  he cannot hide for long .”

From the disbursement formular it is clear that Femi Fani-Kayode received the most money, allegedly receiving N840million, paid in three tranches into his Zenith Bank, Maitama branch account with No.1004735721.
