The Abuja residence of the recently
sacked Special Adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari on Niger Delta and
Coordinator of the Presidential Amnesty Programme, Brigadier-General Paul
Tarela Boroh [retd] was, on Wednesday, stormed by a joint team of the Economic
and Financial Crimes Commission [EFCC] and office of the National Security
Adviser [NSA].
According
to report obtained by ElombahNews, the security operatives stormed his home
located in Gwarinpa early Wednesday morning and recovered some $9 million
in cash [over 3 billion Naira].
It
could be recalled that ElombahNews reported on March 13 that President
Buhari fired with immediate effect Lt. Gen. Boro .
The
President also named Prof. Charles Dokubo as his replacement.
In addition to his sack, Buhari also
directed the National Security Adviser, Babagana Monguno, to carry out a full
investigation into the activities of the Amnesty Programme from 2015 to date.
The
President said the investigation should focus on allegations of financial
impropriety and other acts that are allegedly detrimental to the objectives of
the programme.
