Onochie went further to explain that Nigerians who flaunt wealth that they can’t account for will be probed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission as well as the Independent Corrupt Practices Commission.
The aide to the President added that such persons will be invited by the anti-graft agencies to explain the sources of their wealth and properties. She wrote,
“Lifestyle Audit is now legal in Nigeria. Those who flaunt lifestyles they cannot afford can now be investigated by any of the graft agencies to produce evidence of the sources of their wealth. You can now be called upon to explain how you acquired certain properties. -@ICPC_PE.”
