EFCC set to grill Dino Melaye over Saraki’s N125m apartment
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) will grill Senator Dino Melaye, chairman senate committee on FCT, for questioning over an “invisible” N125 million building purportedly rented for the senate president.
The commission will also invite officials of the Abuja Metropolitan Management Council (AMMC) for interrogation.
A N125 million building purportedly rented for Senate President Bukola Saraki by the Abuja Metropolitan Management Council (AMMC) could not be traced after several searches, even as all stakeholders decided to not comment on the mystery.
The property is said to be located at Plot 973, Mban Close, off Pope John Paul Street, Maitama, Abuja, rented at N50 million per year on a two-year tenancy, with fees and VAT bringing the total cost to N125 million.
Officials of the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA), which superintends the AMMC, have confirmed that payment was actually made for the property.
But Melaye has described the documents as “Made in Taiwan”.
