Former Accountant General of Federation, Jonah Ogunniyi Otunla, has been confirmed dead in UK.
The Irawo-born accountant said to have died in at his residence in United Kingdom on Monday June 17, 2024. He said to have slept and didn’t Wale up again.
Recall, Otunla who hailed from Atisbo Local Government had been battling with financial misappropriation case from the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission EFCC before he later died.
The EFCC had investigated Otunla over diversion of about N24 billion meant for disengaged staff of the defunct Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN) and another N2 billion allegedly received from the office of the National Security Adviser, ONSA for his personal use.
He later refunded N6.3 billion to the coffers of the Federal Government to avoid being prosecuted for looting the treasury.
