EFCC picks former Head of Civil Service, Oronsaye

 

 

Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Tuesday picked former Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, Steve Oronsaye. It was gathered that the former civil service boss was arrested around 4pm on Tuesday over alleged corruption and obtaining money by false pretense.

Report said Oronsaye was re-arrested on a separate two-count charge, attracting a different prosecution.

He allegedly abused his position as Chairman of the Presidential Committee on Financial Action Task Force, obtaining N240m from the Central Bank, which he converted to his personal use.

Oronsaye is no longer a visitor to the anti-graft agency’s office, as he was arrested eight months ago for alleged N6.2 billion fraud.
