O My! What this man did with the strange money that entered his account is really breathtaking.The
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has urged the
general public to be good and patriotic citizens by reporting any money
deposited mistakenly into their various accounts.
The Commission stated this when Dr. Aliyu Usman Tilde, an
academician, columnist and writer returned a draft of N900,000.00 (Nine
Hundred Thousand Naira Only), to the Gombe Zonal office of the EFCC,
which was mistakenly paid into his account.
Three months after his account officer could not trace the origin of
the strange alert, Dr. Tilde reported the case to the EFCC.
Investigation by the EFCC however revealed that the amount belongs to a
law firm that was counsel to Federal Ministry of Justice in a case that
involved a former staff of Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Investigation further revealed that the Clerk of the firm made a
mistake in writing Dr. Tilde’s firm account number when submitting bank
details to the client’s Ministry. Dr. Tilde raised a draft of the said
amount in the name of EFCC EXHIBIT ACCOUNT and brought same to Gombe
zonal office. The beneficiary firm has since been contacted. Can you do the same?
