EFCC grills NIPC Executive Secretary, Yewande Sadiku, over contract fraud

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has grilled the Executive Secretary and Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian Investment Promotion Council (NIPC) Mrs. Yewande Sadiku for about nine hours.

She was interrogated for alleged abuse of office, bordering largely on suspicious award of contracts running into several millions of Naira and a posse of unearned frivolous allowances, a source disclosed.

The source however said there were still many grounds to be covered.

But it was unclear if the NIPC boss will be detained or not as at press time.
