EFCC placed a temporary restriction on one Osun State government account after observing suspicious activities in the past week. This does not mean all Osun State accounts are frozen only the targeted one. EFCC has the power to issue such temporary restrictions. Wilson Uwujaren, Director of Public Affairs, EFCC

They should open the account immediately. The optics is bad

You can all hear they still have other accounts they can use but this particular one is where there was suspicious activities on. This is standard if I run above my usual limit on my account, my bank will request for proof of funds and if I am unable to present they will place a restriction on my account. So what are will all acting like it is strange. So all of a sudden you start moving massive state money to unknown or connected accounts and you expect the EFCC to fold hands because election is coming. We are just to emotional in this country.

Tinubu Apc appoint the EFCC chairman 😊 Apc will win either by selection or election. When Fubara was suspended Nigerians were looking. Adeleke will soon be on his way out just like Fubara. Apc will not have mercy to any opposition

Any serious institution that wants zero tolerance for corruption should act proactively before they cause any damage.

That's what is happening but as usual, they are spinning it out of proportion.

APC state governors are donating part of the state allocation to contribute towards Tinubu’s re-election. Why hasn’t the EFCC done same to their accounts.

No matter how sincere or genuine the intentions, people will find it hard to accept because it is coming a few days before elections. But looking on the bright side: Why should freezing a state government account days before elections become a big deal? Is the money in the Osun State government account meant for elections? If the Osun State government is lamenting this, then something fishy is definitely going on, or perhaps they were trying to use state money to run the election.

I think it’s important for EFCC to act quickly on suspicious activities to ensure transparency and accountability

Woaw i like this ..tell us more. if they could freeze these accounts based on what they noticed .. then do well to lay out the activities going on in a state owned accounts? Nigerians know better... politicians playing politics

Investigation should be allowed to take its course. If there are genuine concerns about public funds, accountability is necessary, but transparency is also important to avoid unnecessary political suspicion.

Efcc is literally working with apc, its clear that democracy has no effect in Nigeria anymore. Its best the military takes over and let forget democracy because apc government is driving us crazy...

You must do that to other state during their elections EFCC, we know it’s just because the governor is not APC

How many of state accounts especially APC states are currently frozen, abi no suspicion on all those ones bah? ... How come something suspicious was just notice recently. It has never been noticed before to the extent of account freezing?? Ok nnah

Ok. It's only one account, fair enough. We all know that government allegedly use state to illegally finance elections. But can this apply to the federal government too?

What if he won the governorship election?

Make I just they observe

I hope the move isn’t politically driven

Do you have same order or power to freeze federal account as unwise spending towards election

🗯️

You now see why almost all the 36 states moved to APC.

Their plan has always been to rig the election by all means

Once you hear, thank you very much for that question, be assured that all that will follow are lies.

People were saying all accounts, but EFCC said only one

Every state needs to learn from this mostly the Yoruba states 🥲

EFCC is a tool used by the government of the day to fight perceived oppositions

Why couldn't you just wait and gather more evidence to nab the government after the elections. We know what you're doing @efcc. You sef will soon pass.

Like this Tinubu na get the full Nigeria, all security agencies are under he’s control, police DSS military INEC road safety, CBN , Nigerians are in big trouble but some people thiink it’s a APC or NDC issue

Tinubu is setting a horrible precedence. This level of desperation is shocking.

It only time for election then they have to preserve the mandate u get

Why 72hours to election date?? Which APC state have they frozen this way, 72hours to election??? Its planned and targeted clearly.

During the presidential election,who will now restrict FG account
