after due consultation I will report with Alhaji Tutare tomorrow being 12th July 2007for final resolution of the matter. I want to state voluntarily to ask for plea bargain. So that whatever is alledged (sic) to have been misappropicated (sic) by me personally will be returned back to Government. I will request my lawyers and EFCC to set the Process in Motion.” Now, from this Statement, it can clearly be seen that the Defendant was the very person who mentioned Security Funds and NOT the Prosecution and the issue of Security Votes was not stated in the Counts of Offences. It is also clear from the above Extract in Exhibit Z6 that the Defendant positively acknowledged the fact that “the Accountant cashes the Money and brings it cash to me...” Therefore, the defendant had received certain Monies from the Accountant in Abuja sent from Jalingo, which he admitted ranged between Two to Thirty Million in Cash, through a PROCESS that starts from the Cash in the Bank. Under Cross Examination, the Defendant admitted that whenever he wanted to travel to Abuja, he would ORALLY instruct Mr. Dennis Nev, the Permanent Secretary, Government House, to act by transferring Funds to Abuja. These Monies from Taraba State Government could be any of the following as claimed by the Defendant, who stated that his Duty Tour Allowance, was not the only Monies collected by his Orderly, who signed for his Entitlements: His Duty Tour Allowances 1) 2) His Security Votes Fund 3) His Dispensation/ His Entitlements The Defendant could not recall what his Entitlements were comprised of but stated that it depended on the way the Memo was couched. It could be Contingents but the main Funds were his Duty Tour Allowances. 215
