EFCC May Go After Ex-first Lady Over N1trn Campaign Funds’ Disbursement by simpleseyi: 7:04am On Feb 16, 2016 |
The wife of a former president may soon be invited by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to explain her role in the sourcing and disbursement of huge funds spent by the Presidency in the last two weeks before the general elections. The fund, estimated at over a trillion naira, was routed and disbursed through the Amnesty Office to some notable politicians in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Investigators of the disbursement noticed that the release of about 40 per cent of the funds was authorized by the former First Lady. Also under investigation by operatives of the anti-graft agency, is the source of the funds, which has not been established due to the Amnesty office’s boss departure from the country. According to sources, the failure of the former head of the presidential Amnesty Programme to return to the country has slowed down investigations of how the funds were sourced, “because he allegedly disbursed the bulk of the money, which was not part of the funds allocated to his office.” It was gathered that the suspected Amnesty boss who will face 14 petitions written to the EFCC against him, left the country soon after preliminary investigations into the sourcing and disbursement of funds for the elections. “Ordinarily, he should have been here to defend himself against the petitions, but he has refused to show up. It is highly suspected that he is not in any hospital. It was all a dummy be sold to Nigerians. He left this country as soon as he sensed the EFCC may invite him to explain his role in the funds disbursement”, a source said. Already, some of his aides, including personal assistants and driver, have been interrogated on the matter. The investigating team would also want to ascertain his interest in an airline that operates in South Africa with about 12 aircraft. EFCC’s spokesman, Mr. Wilson Uwujare, could not be reached for comments on the matter before Press time. However, a source who did not want his name in print, said efforts were being made to get him back to the country for interrogation. In the past few months, the present administration has increased the tempo of its hunt for public funds suspected to have either been looted from government coffers, especially during the immediate past administration. Already, many serving and retired military officers, including former service chiefs as well as top politicians have been interrogated by the anti-graft agency. Government sources have since disclosed that some of those involved have returned part of their loots in a bid to escape prosecution and public ridicule. Similarly, many push buildings belonging to some of those under investigation have been sealed in many parts of the country.

This is becoming nauseating. Everyday we are just kept busy with EFCC stories while the economy is nosediving. Ironically, it is a PDP senator in the name of BEN BRUCE that is trying to lead the economic revolution or at least a semblance of it. I wonder why people are not tired of all these charade everyday . The dss started with kashamu laying siege on his house for days and he is still senator till date. several cases followed since then practically everyday and till date not a single conviction has been achieved and youths that are mainly affected by this economic shutdown will come here and start saying they must vomit some stupid yams. There is no law yet in Nigeria that says parties must disclose their source of campaign funds so which one is this that EFCC want to know the source of PDP campaign money. Who will probe the source of APC campaign fund? This is what morsi and his islamic party was busy doing in Egypt and the rest they say is history. Pls, Buhari, save the future of Nigerian youths. we know you are too old and may no longer care about tomorrow but please, support BEN BRUCE to lead economic revolution for nigeria and put a stop to all these propaganda and media fight against corruption that is so far ineffective as reflected in the BUDGET OF YAMS prepared under your nose, , SHAMELESSLY PRESENTED BY YOU ONLY TO BE STOLEN BY YOU SIR. This my president is the height of corruption 90 Likes 16 Shares |

News from Sun newspaper is classified as suspicion, always peddling fake news. Jonathan aid has denied the report and demanded apology from The Sun over the report that he said Nigeria will burn, the report from The Sun that General Wiwa was arrested by EFCC has also being discovered to be false and now this, I don't believe until another news media confirm it. 19 Likes 1 Share |

Since Mama Piss does not want to take food to her husband in prison, I think her husband will not mind taking food to her in prison.

Stealing was not and is still not corruption. Nobody can arrest or even question Chief Mrs President Gooodluck Jonathan on what she did or what she's doing. Your husband might not be the president "constitutionally" but his presidential 'manhood' lives eternal and you ma lady is Nigeria's First Lady For Life. |

You could not reach the EFCC spokesperson yet went to press with the news. What is now the source of the news? Has Sun newspaper become the media arm of the EFCC?
