Former first lady Mrs Jonathan |
Patience Jonathan has
written to Ibrahim Magu, the chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC) explaining that the $31.4 million found in her account is for
her medical expenses. The former first lady had initially filed a suit against the
anti-graft agency after the account linked to her was frozen. The Guardian
reports that the account is being fingered as one of those involved in an
alleged fraud case before a Federal High Court sitting in Lagos but Mrs
Jonathan’s counsel, Gboyega Oduwole has filed a case before the court,
informing that his client is unhappy with the EFCC over the recent move to
freeze the account.
