Anti-corruption Ambassador: Ekweremadu Replies EFCC by femiakinbully(m): 3:18pm On Apr 21, 2016 |
The Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, yesterday responded to the denial of the anti-corruption award given to him by the National Assembly Liaison Officer of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Suleiman Bakari. Read the statement released by Ekweremadu’s media aide, Uche Anichukwu below; “We want to put it on record that Mr. Suleiman Bakari and his team applied for and susbsequently paid a courtesy call on the Deputy President of the Senate in his office on Tuesday, April 19, 2016. Mr. Bakari, amongst other issues he raised, solicited the support of the Senate and National Assembly towards the anti-corruption crusade of the present administration, and even presented a frame with a bold picture of President Muhammadu Buhari, bearing the inscription: “If we dont kill corruption, corruption will kill Nigeria”. “Mr. Bakari also, on behalf of the Acting Chairman, management, and staff of the EFCC, decorated Senator Ekweremadu as an anti-corruption ambassador of the EFCC. “As for the purported claim by the EFCC spokesperson that the agency had never and could not have decorated anybody as an anti-corruption ambassador, since, according to him, “the commission is not in the habit of awarding titles to individuals”, we wish to refer him to December 7, 2007, when the Nuhu Ribadu-led EFCC confered the Role Model Award in the fight against corruption on certain persons, including a former president of the senate, a taxi driver, and a former justice of the Federal High Court at the Musa Yar’Adua Centre, Abuja, “ the statement said. According to him, the denial by the EFCC coming in two different statements within a few hours is “baffling, inexplicable, and contradicitory.” http://www.9jastreet.com/anti-corruption-ambassador-ekwe/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter
