EFCC: We Didn’t Discover $800M, ₦700bn Cash & Drugs At Bello El-Rufai’s House

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has dismissed as false claims that it discovered $800 million, ₦700 billion cash, and drugs worth ₦1 trillion at the residence of Bello El-Rufai, the eldest son of the immediate past Governor of Kaduna State, Nasir El-Rufai.

The commission made this known on Thursday in a terse statement on its official Facebook account.

This clarification follows speculations that the EFCC discovered the alleged sums of money and drugs at Bello’s residence in Kaduna State.

However, the anti-graft agency described the claims as a false narrative of its activities.
The EFCC, therefore, urged Nigerians to disregard the reports, stating:

“‘EFCC Discovers $800 Million, ₦700 Billion Cash, and ₦1 Trillion Worth of Drugs at Nasir El-Rufai Son’s House in Kaduna”

This piece of news quoted above is a false narrative of the activities of the EFCC. Members of the public are enjoined to ignore it.”

DAILY POST reports that Bello El-Rufai also debunked the speculations, denying that the EFCC discovered large sums of money and drugs at his residence.
