According
to Sahara reporters, Philo Nkem Ajufo, the acting
General Manager of Delta State Tourism Board, has been detained by the Economic
and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in Abuja over her role in a financial
scheme.
Ms. Ajufo
is reportedly being quizzed for conniving with her boss, Richard Mofe Damijo
(RMD) to embezzle N50 million from the state Ministry of Culture and Tourism.
Mr. Mofe
Damijo, a well-known Nollywood star, is the commissioner in charge of the
ministry. Our EFCC said the commissioner was also being sought by the
anti-corruption agency, but he has been elusive.
