Ahmed said there was nowhere in the audio conversation that indicated his principal was given money.

He explained that the $25,000 mentioned in the conversation was the amount Sani paid Dauda who is the chairman of ASD Motors for a Peugeot 508 he bought.

Legit.ng gathered that Ahmed said that Sani had presented his evidence of purchase to the EFCC, adding that the money was never a bribe given to Sani to bribe the Chief justice of Nigeria (CJN) or EFCC officials as alleged.

He also explained that part of the conversation Sani had with the ASD Motors boss was to get him to support his political ambition.

According to Ahmed, Sani has never at any point begged the EFCC not to take the audios presented to him by the EFCC to the media.

He insisted that the audios had been manipulated to indict Sani and damage his reputation while promising that an authentic full version of the audio conversations would be presented at the court when Sani's trial starts.

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that the EFCC had allegedly acquired incriminating audiotapes to boost its evidence in the allegations against Sani.

The tapes, which are 13 in number, contained conversations between Shehu Sani and his accuser, one Dauda.

The anti-graft agency was said to have played the tapes to the hearing of the ex-senator in the presence of his lawyers Audu Mohammed Lawal and Glory Peter on Wednesday, January 15.

The former federal lawmaker was reported to have confirmed that the voice on the tape was his but alleged that parts of the conversation had been erased.
