Abubakar Umar, the fourth prosecution witness in the trial of a former Benue State Governor, Gabriel Suswam, testified on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Umar told Justice Ahmed Ramat Mohammed of the Federal High Court that he handed over $15.8million to Suswam at his Maitama residence, Abuja.<\/p>\n

The Bureau De Change Operator and CEO of Fanffash Resources has been in the witness box since 2018.<\/p>\n

The PW4 disclosed that he received calls from associates of Suswam<\/a> threatening him to change his statement.<\/p>\n

Umar revealed that sometime in August 2014, Suswam, at his home, introduced him to a lady whom he was asked to give his account details.<\/p>\n

\u201cSuswam said when I see the money, I should give him the dollar equivalent which I did, amounting to $15.8m using N197 as exchange rate. I handed over the dollars in cash to Suswam at his residence in Abuja\u201d<\/p>\n

Umar told the court that he never mentioned that he handed over the money to Suswam at Kubwa but Maitama.<\/p>\n

The witness said his company, Fanffash Resources, had no relationship with the Benue State Government and Elixir Investment Partners Limited.<\/p>\n

Justice Mohammed adjourned the matter until May 25, 2021 for continuation of trial.<\/p>\n

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) re-arraigned Suswam and his ex-Commissioner of Finance, Omodachi Okolobia, on November 2, 2020 for fraud.<\/p>\n

They were docked on amended 11-count charges, bordering on theft, criminal breach of trust, illegal award of contracts and money laundering to the tune of N3.1 billion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
