The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) yesterday arraigned a former Director-General of the Bureau for Public Enterprises (BPE), Benjamin Ezra Dikki, before Justice Yusuf Halilu of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) High Court in Abuja on four counts of alleged corruption and abuse of office.
A statement issued by EFCC said Dikki, who was docked alongside his company, Kebna Studios and Communications Limited, allegedly received about a billion naira as gratification from Bestworth Insurance Brokers for his role in facilitating the approval of outstanding insurance premiums and claims of deceased and incapacitated staff of Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN).
