The Economic Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has extended its probe on padding of the 2016 budget to the Senate Appropriation Committee, Vanguard reports.
This follows the actions of sacked Chairman of the House of Reps Appropriation Committee, Hon. Abdulmumin Jibrin, who submitted petitions to the EFCC and other agencies.
The Senate Committee among other things, would be investigated for alleged insertions amounting to about N5 billion in some Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs), Vanguard said.
“It is true the petition by Jibril centered on activities of the House leadership, but in order to ensure that there are no clash of investigations, the EFCC has decided to Centre its investigations on the Senate Committee on Appropriations," an agent reportedly said. "By that we will be able to make distinct discoveries.”
