Senator Iyiola Omisore has denied collecting the sum of N1.310 billion from Dasukigate arms deal. The Osun State PDP guber candidate in the last election claimed that… “I don’t know Dasuki from Adam. I never went to his office. The Federal Government is just using the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission to victimise and embarrass me. They had said I received N600m, they later said N1.9bn, now they are saying N1.3bn. Which of these figures do they want to pin on me? They have kept shifting the goalpost at will.”

Be that as it may, a source at the EFCC squealed to us that the sum of N1.310 billion was paid into company’s account which the politician is linked to… “On July 9, 2014, N150m was paid into the bank account of Sawanara at First Bank. On August 1, 2014, N300m was paid into Sawanara Limited. On August 8, 2014, about N160m was paid into the bank account of Fimex Gilt Limited domiciled at UBA. On the day of the election, August 9, 2014, N350m was paid into the First Bank account of Metropolitan Consortium.”
