The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has clarified reports that ₦100 million was transferred to the personal account of Victor Egbetokun, son of outgoing Inspector-General of Police Kayode Egbetokun.

Speaking Monday on Politics Today on Channels Television, Force Public Relations Officer Benjamin Hundeyin said the transfer was made in error and quickly reversed.

“He said he saw ₦100 million in his account, and he told his accounts officer to reverse the money immediately, which he did,” Hundeyin explained.

He added that Victor provided evidence of the reversal. “He printed out his statement of account. He showed me. The young man was forced to close down that account.

He has written a petition to the EFCC for that allegation to be investigated,” Hundeyin said.

According to the police, the funds were returned to the Anambra State Government’s account shortly after the mistake was discovered.
