A foreign aid official who refused the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) access to his agency's financial records may have had a reason to keep auditors out: he steered illicit contracts to a friend who sent him secret payments, according to a law enforcement affidavit obtained by The Daily Wire.Mathieu Zahui, chief financial officer of the African Development Foundation, refused to grant DOGE access to its books and told the White House that the agency would not acknowledge President Donald Trump's appointee as chairman of the board. After a dramatic showdown in March, DOGE physically took over the building with U.S. Marshals, but control of the agency is now the subject of a lawsuit objecting to "swooping in with DOGE staff, demanding access to sensitive information systems" -- an objection that reads differently in light of the criminal probe....According to a search warrant application uncovered by The Daily Wire, USAID's inspector general established by August 2024 that the company's owner had secretly wired money to Zahui's personal bank account at times that matched up with the federal contracts. To date, the Department of Justice has not charged either man with a crime.
