Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission,
North West Zonal office, Kano, have arrested a Chinese man with
N305,000 in N5 denomination.
He was arrested at the Mallam Aminu Kano International Airport,
en-route Dubai.
Addressing newsmen at the anti-graft North West zonal
headquarters on Wednesday, the Zonal Head of Operations, Dr. Adamu
Hamisu Dan Musa, said the Chinese man, Ma Yongvin, was arrested on
July 25, 2017 and cannot speak English, but only his language and
Arabic.
Yongvin reportedly said he planned to us the money to produce an
album.
Musa said that his itineraries as shown on Yongvin’s
international passports confirmed that he had only been to Nigeria
twice, thereby arousing suspicion as to why the Chinese man wanted
to use the naira notes for an album.
During interrogation, Musa said, Yongvin failed to offer any
further useful explanation.
He said investigation into the case was ongoing, adding that the
Chinese was still in their custody.
He said at the end of investigations, he would be charged to
court.
