Account released the Funds. Mr. Bubajoda would have been a valuable Witness for the Defendant to summon to testify in his regard and would have no doubt cleared the air on the transferred Funds, if indeed they emanated from the Security Funds Accounts. It is worthy to note that if the Defendant had maintained before this Court that the Security Votes Monies were deposited directly into the Account belonging to the Government House, and had he then requested Mr. Dennis Nev to transfer the Sums of Money, there would have been no problem because they were none accountable to anyone but the Defendant himself. Had he also said, Mr. Bubajoda transferred or paid Money from the Security Votes Account into the Government House Account in Jalingo, before it was subsequently transferred to Abuja, there would also have been no problem but he had said that Mr. Bubajoda was the Sole Signatory of the Security Funds Account. Then he contradicted himself when he stated that it was another Official and he could not remember his name. Another inconsistency was when he stated that the Security Funds were always deposited in a Security Votes Account but later said it was always placed in a Safe at the Government House. The Defendant had by his testimony before the Court stated that as at the 16th of December 2005, there were no more misconceptions about the Security Votes which means he tacitly admitted writing the Letter in Exhibit PP. It all does not add up and from the evidence, Mr. Bubajoda ought to have been called to establish that it was Security Funds that was transferred to Abuja or the other Official with his Security Votes Register ought to have been called. The Final Origin of the Liaison Funds could have been that of the Defendant’s Entitlements/Dispensation.The Defendant had fingered the Accountant of Government House, Mr. Joel Andrews as the right Person to compute all 222
