Shadowy financial operator, Saint Egbunike Onuohah, who allegedly uses different faceless bank accounts to launder money for embattled former Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation Minister, Betta Edu, is now on the run.

Onuohah’s role is coming to light on the heels of the bubble-busting presidential directive suspending Edu and subsequent directive to Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, to thoroughly investigate the erstwhile minister.

Hundreds of millions have been allegedly laundered by Egbunike for the Cross-River State born Edu.

TheNewDiplomat had reported that Edu’s directive transferring N585 million to the private account of what was called a project consultant, against the advice of the Accountant General of the Federation, had triggered high-decibel allegations with other financial irregularities coming to light.
