Owobo, an EFCC operative, made the revelation during a cross examination at a Lagos High Court sitting at Igbosere, Lagos Island.
He said there were discrepancies in the age declaration form that Tarfa filled at the commission’s office.
The witness said in the course of investigation, the commission wrote letters to three banks — Zenith, Fidelity and GT Bank — requesting information on Tarfa’s account.
On the analysis of GT Bank’s document, it was discovered that Tarfa was born on February 23, 1962 but from Tarfa’s international passport his age was 54, he said.
He told the court that in the statement Tarfa made before the commission he declared himself as 43-year-old.
Justice A. A. Akintoye adjourned the case till October 14.
