How Okupe received N702m from Dasuki ‘for doing nothing’ – Witness

The witness, Osas Azonabor, was speaking at an Abuja Division of the Federal High Court where Mr Okupe is facing trial on 59 counts for allegedly diverting the said amount.

“Azonabor told the court that the EFCC wrote to the ONSA, demanding the vouchers of the payments made to Okupe. The witness gave the testimony while answering questions from a lawyer, Ibrahim Audu who also works for the EFCC. “He told us he was the Senior Special Assistant to former President Goodluck Jonathan from 2012 and was placed on a monthly salary of N835, 000, paid to him by the SGF,” Mr Azonabor said.

It, however, added that a letter was written to the TV station to confirm the authenticity of the document that emanated from NTA.
