The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has recovered a sum
of N900,000 mistakenly deposited in a customer’s account in a new
generation bank.
The customer, Aliyu Usman Tilde, who owned the
account having done no business with anybody to warrant such credit in
his account, reported the suspicious lodgment to the Gombe zonal office
of the EFCC.
The EFCC through discrete investigation discovered
that the money belongs to a law firm that was engaged by the Federal
Ministry of Justice in a case that involved a former staff of the
Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
While commending the patriotism of Tilde, the EFCC calls on the general
public to emulate such honest attitude by reporting suspicious
lodgment/transaction to relevant authorities.
