Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) have arrested four top officials of the Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) over alleged N2 billion Duty Tour Allowance (DTA) fraud in the agency.
According to
a report by PRNigeria, the suspects are Bilkisu Adamu Sani, Director of Finance
and Accounts; Hart Benson Fimienye, Deputy General Manager of Treasury; Obene
Jenbarimiema Turniel, Deputy General Manager of Management Accounts; and
Nathaniel Terna Kaainjo, General Manager of Accounts and Stores.
A credible
source told PRNigeria that Mr Nathaniel was taken into EFCC’s custody on
Thursday, March 16, while the others were arrested on Monday, March 20. The
suspects are currently being interrogated by a team of operatives at the
anti-graft Agency’s headquarters in Abuja.
The arrest
of these officials follows the EFCC's intensified efforts to rid Nigeria of
corrupt practices and ensure that public officials are held accountable for
their actions.
