Former Senate Leader, Senator Ali Ndume, All Progressives Congress (APC), Borno South has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to, as a matter of urgency, sign an Executive Order on Unexplained Wealth as a powerful tool for financial investigation in the country.
According to him, Unexplained Wealth Order must be domesticated in Nigeria as obtained in the United Kingdom.
Speaking with journalists, yesterday, in Abuja, Ndume said that if the just confirmed Substantive Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Abdulrasheed Bawa, will carry out his work effectively with results achieved, it has become very imperative for President Buhari to sign the Unexplained Wealth Order (UWO).
Ndume stressed that the President should send the Order as an Executive Bill to the National Assembly for approval, subsequent passage and signing into law.
Ndume said, “Unexplained Wealth Order must be domesticated in Nigeria. President Muhammadu Buhari should sign an Executive Order on Unexplained Wealth to enable the new Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Abdulrasheed Bawa to work. If one is in a house more than his salary, government should go after such a person to explain how he got the money.
