The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has asked a bridegroom, Ibrahim Mohammad, who hails from Niger Republic to produce his guests that allegedly abused the naira note at his reception in Kano State.

EFCC spokesperson, Dele Oyewale, confirmed the development on Monday in Abuja that the commission has invited the Nigerien, Mohammad, to report at its national headquarters in Abuja, with everyone that sprayed naira notes at his wedding with Zannah.

Oyewale also clarified that the alleged naira abuse that happened at a wedding ceremony in Kano, on October 24, 2024 was not that of the daughter of Senator Danjuma Goje, noting that the abuse was allegedly committed at the wedding of Amina Babagana Zannah held on the afore-mentioned date.

According to Oyewale, the bridegroom, Mohammad hails from Niger Republic and those that allegedly sprayed naira notes and dollar bills were from the groom’s family in Niger.

He said: “As a responsible and accountable anti-corruption agency campaigning against currency mutilation and dollarization of the economy, EFCC swung into action by analysing the video and findings showed that the alleged naira abuse actually happened but not at the wedding of Goje’s daughter but at the wedding dinner of Amina Zannah.”

“Zannah is the daughter of Hajara Seidu Haruna(a.ka. Hafsat Gold Nigeria) who is the Chief Executive Officer of Hafsat Jewellery Enterprise with offices in Abuja, Kano and Dubai( United Arab Emirate).

“Haruna confirmed the viral video. She admitted that the alleged naira abuse took place at the wedding dinner of her daughter on October 24, 2024.

“The bridegroom, Ibrahim Mohammad hails from Niger Republic and those that allegedly sprayed naira notes and dollar bills were from the groom’s family in Niger Republic.

“While the EFCC appreciates the consciousness its campaigns against naira abuse is building across the country, it will not move against anyone wrongly accused of an alleged crime.

“The Commission remains steadfast in this crusade and would spare no offender, no matter how highly placed.”
