The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission said on Friday that it arrested two suspects, Moghalu Maduakonam and Esho David, at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja over alleged attempt to smuggle $240,000 out of the country.

The suspects were said to have made useful statements.

A statement by the spokesperson for the EFCC, Mr. Wilson Uwujaren, said that while Maduakonam was travelling to Dubai, the United Arab Emirates with $200,000 which he failed to declare, David, who was going to Istanbul, Turkey, declared only $5,000 out of the $40,050 in his possession.
