Bailout Funds Scandal: Governor Loses $10m To Mistress

A governor is under probe after the sum of $10 million he diverted from the bailout funds allocated to his state was hijacked by his mistress.The governor was said to have commissioned his mistress to help him launder the said sum only for the latter to refuse to remit it in the slush accounts the governor provided.

Already, the money in question has been traced to a bank in the United States.The Nation investigation revealed that the governor resorted to using his US-based mistress to stash the funds abroad in order to avoid monitoring by security agencies.

The cash was allegedly either wired or hauled in tranches in order to beat the nation’s Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU). In spite of the governor’s tricks, however, security agencies were able to intercept the deal between him and his mistress.

It was gathered that the diversion of the looted $10 million by the mistress created an uproar that triggered the ongoing investigation of the deal between the love birds.

One of the sources involved in the probe said: “A governor from an oil-producing state is in soup and under probe by some security agencies. “The governor seems to have been duped by his mistress who stays in Texas in the United States. “The governor is worried after discovering that his girlfriend has defrauded him of $10 million. .
.
. “What started as a love affair and promises of good faith has turned sour. “Yet the governor would not want his wife or the people of the state, who will be disappointed, to know about this ugly transaction.” The security chief added:
.
.
. “Investigation so far indicated that the governor allegedly diverted part of the bailout funds meant for his state to the mistress. “All relevant security agencies are already tracking how the cash was wired to the mistress as well as the whereabouts of the funds. “Very soon, the details of the transaction will be revealed to Nigerians.
