According to ICIR, Bawa revealed that at least two ministries are currently on the Commission’s radar for fraudulent operations bordering on procurement processes.

Bawa said, “Currently, we’re investigating two ministries where double payments were made. In one of the ministries, the double payments, cumulatively, were about 20 contracts of over N4 billion.

“They moved the documents from the file, forged them, and then, of course, in conspiracy of some civil servants, raised vouchers and pay. How can that happen if we have digitalised procurement processes?” Bawa asked.

Speaking about calls for his sack by several civil society organisations, he said: “It is on record that I am the first sitting EFCC chairman to go to court and testify, not once, not twice or three times. We now have some groups of people that were paid; we know the people that are paying them, coming up with all sorts of gang-ups.

“We are following due process and the rule of law. The court had made a pronouncement, we have appealed that, and there is a stay of execution. What do you expect? We move on!” Bawa said

The chairman stressed that massive arrests would be made in May, after which the Commission would commence prosecutions.
