EFCC invites Atiku’s spokesman over N100m Dasuki fund

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has invited a spokesperson for the Atiku Abubakar Campaign Organisation, Dr Doyin Okupe, for allegedly receiving N100m from embattled former National Security Adviser, Col Sambo Dasuki (retd.).

Apart from allegedly receiving money from Dasuki, the former presidential aide is also accused of receiving dubious contracts to the tune of N76m from a local council in Niger State.

However, Okupe said he was invited by the EFCC for cybercrime, stalking and alleged hate speech.

He said EFCC officials stormed his Lagos home on Saturday and attempted to take him to their office but he resisted.
