The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Sunday quoted Kwara State Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq as saying that the state has used the N263,327,800 recovered from looters to revive an oxygen plant and buy ventilators to contain the Coronavirus pandemic.

It said the governor claimed that the cash came in handy when there was dwindling revenue and allocations arising from the global oil crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

A statement by the Acting Head, Media and Publicity of EFCC, Mr. Tony Orilade, said the governor made the disclosure when he was giving an update on the recovered cash.
