TA Orji, Yahaya Bello, Ayo Fayose Other 55 Ex-Governors In EFCC List Over N2.2trn Fraud

The EFCC has implicated 58 ex-governors in misusing or laundering about N2.2 trillion in the past 25 years, an amount that surpasses the annual budgets of several Nigerian regions.

This ongoing investigation targets a significant number of officials since the return to civilian rule in 1999.

According to the Economic Financial Crime Commission (EFCC), a significant number of former governors, totaling at least 58, have alleged to been involved in the misappropriation, embezzlement, or laundering of approximately N2.187 trillion over a span of 25 years.

VerseNews gathered that this amount does not include properties seized worldwide or those currently being investigated, which amount to billions of Naira.

The amount of N2.2 trillion that was looted is similar to the combined budgets of Lagos State and the South-East states for 2024, totaling N2.25 trillion and N2.29 trillion respectively.

This figure exceeds the budgets of the North-Central states and North-East states for 2024, which are N1.89 trillion and N1.60 trillion, by several billion.

The EFCC is currently investigating, probing, and prosecuting 58 ex-governors from various regions of the country. Since the restoration of civilian government on May 29, 1999, there have been at least 170 governors serving in the 36 states of Nigeria.

The 58 ex-governors who are currently or have previously faced investigations by EFCC, with alleged amounts in question, consist of:
