A total of $292.09 million was withdrawn from the NNPC JVCC JP Morgan Chase Account in London, and N2.47 billion from the NNPC JVCC naira account with the Central Bank of Nigeria.
The report also revealed that the sum of $289.2 million (about N56.97 billion at the 2015 year end rate of N197 to $1), was released “in cash” to the National Intelligence Agency, NIA, for the “procurement of 13 items of expenditure to enable the NIA respond to the nation’s mounting diverse and complex security challenges.”
Another $2.89 million was charged as Commission on the transaction, bringing the total amount disbursed to $292.09 million.
The report pointed that the NIA had sought the approval of then President, Goodluck Jonathan, for the release of the funds, but there was no evidence that Jonathan granted the request.
