EFCC Probes Corruption Allegations Against Ex-NMDPRA Boss Following Dangote's Petition

The EFCC is probing Farouk Ahm, former NMDPRA boss, over corruption allegations raised in a petition by Aliko Dangote. The petition accuses Ahm of abusing office and misusing public funds, including spending $7 million on his children's education in Switzerland.

This investigation follows a similar case involving Yahaya Bello, former Kogi State governor, who allegedly used government funds to pay school fees. The EFCC has begun preliminary work on the case, with Dangote's legal team submitting a fresh petition.

Ahm is yet to be questioned in this ongoing sensitive matter.
