Following revelations that he received N12 million in the build-up to the 2015 presidential poll, former Chairman of Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP) in Bagoro Local Government Area of Bauchi State, Andrew Adamu, on Tuesday, refunded N5 million to the EFCC.

Adamu had earlier paid N1 million to the anti-graft agency in order to avert prosecution, thereby bringing his total refund so far to N6 million.

The former chairman is said to have made the refund via bank draft to the EFCC North East Zonal Office in Gombe State.

According to EFCC spokesman, Wilson Uwujaren, during an interrogation, Adamu admitted that he signed and collected the said amount in the presence of Marcus Bulus Makama, a current member of  Bauchi State House of Assembly and former caretaker chairman of the local government, Hasanna Arkila.

Adamu told EFCC operatives that Moses Hankali, who was the secretary, stakeholders committee of the PDP, shared the money for the re-election of the former President Goodluck Jonathan.
