The anti-graft agency said its investigations revealed that a former Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Usman Jibrin (rtd.), allegedly orchestrated the fraud through Yusuf and former Brig.-Gen. Ishaya Bauka Gangum (rtd.).

The alleged scheme reportedly involved diversion of public funds, using 92 fictitious companies said not registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC).

According to the ICPC, the diverted funds were traced to entities such as Lahab Integrated and Gate Coast Properties, as well as other affiliated companies, leading to the acquisition of over 18 properties, including filling stations.
