The records that were given to the Federal Capital Territory High Court on December 19, 2023, became public online as the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) continued to look into Bello's actions while he was governor.

Payment for the 2034–2035 session was made in one of the receipts.

 In December 2023, SaharaReporters exclusively revealed that the EFCC had confiscated $760,910.84 related to alleged money laundering from Bello's payments to American International School, Abuja, which were intended to cover the tuition for four pupils until graduation.

 According to records that SaharaReporters was able to collect in December of last year, Governor Bello made a deal with the school through his nephew Mr. Ali Bello to pay his four children's tuition up front till graduation in order to insure their future.

Following the events, the administration of the school sent a letter to the EFCC on October 27, 2022, demanding an official written demand for the money's return. However, the anti-graft agency supplied an account to which the funds were to be deposited.

The remaining $759,91084 was later paid to the account by the school after an initial $1,000 payment.In the meantime, the EFCC is pursuing legal action against Ali Bello for a N3 billion scam.

Along with other defendants, Ali Bello was charged with eighteen charges of money laundering and misappropriation totaling around N3 billion in February before the Federal High Court.
