blueto: U always talk like an illiterate. In fact u are a stack naked one. Every country have thier financial laws. If u have no skeleton in ur cup board while will u be scared to invest? Ben Bruce deliberately used the word picked up, instead of invited. As i speak, one of my friends dad was "invited" by the EFFC, he is a berue de change, he was grilled for several hours and granted bail that sameday and he is going about his business today. Someone wrote a petition against him 1 Like |

We need to stop whining like ninnies. Even here, if you deposit $10,000 and above in a bank, they notify the IRS. EFCC are kindergarteners compared to the IRS. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Mynd44: "Reported" means they're aware of it. "Picking up" means arresting and they shouldn't do that unless there is cause to do so. That's the point. Follow due process in your "investigations"(first) and prosecutions. The average Nigerian believes everybody that has money "stole it from them" and the anti-graft agencies, seem to be unprofessionally exploiting this erroneous and dangerous sentiment of the common man. The average investor, on the other hand, is more intelligent that the average man on the street and sees beyond the charade they are calling anti-corruption fight. 3 Likes |

maj007:yes I agree with you but you are emphasising on the level of corruption but he is talking about the approach adopted in fighting corruption. Is the fight transparent enough to convince foreign investors that yes something is going on here? Is the same measure used against all suspects in the cases of corruption. That is the approach is the question. Don't you think that the way the government is going they will think that any day they go against the government or critically criticise the government then the government will fight them with the "weapon of corruption? ". In corruption cases no one should be regarded as saint |

progress69:Was PEJ invited for questionings before her accounts were freezed and threats were made to confiscate it into the TSA?? get the clear message, EFCC are making irrational moves!. The funds owned by investors may be channelled into the TSA even without investors being giving the opportunity to make clarifications. Stop make illiterate and blinded comments here. 3 Likes |

well, let us be aware Nigeria is going through a cleansing process. for now fraudulent investors are not allowed in... Genuine investors Will still find Nigeria as a good investment ground. Mind You, no real investor wants to invest in a country that her Government supports Corrupt practices. these whole process will yield good dividends in the near future. I BELIEVE IN CHANGE! |

In reality, it should have being only investors with dirty slates that should be taking the first flight out of Nigeria. But the thing be say, the anti-corruption campaign is a lopsided one way buoyant boat that only rescue the "BROOM WAVING PIRATES" at sea, as they loot from the "UMBRELLA EX-GENTLEMEN". To get aboard this ugly pirate ship, all you have to do is to denounce your Umbrella in exchange for a Broom. |

blueto:But this is exactly what I'm saying, SERAP isn't EFCC. EFCC would not prosecute except they have invited the person first for a chat/questioning first and the outcome of the questioning reveals the person has a case to answer. blueto:Same thing I'm saying, efcc wouldn't be able to do that until they have established a clear case against her. They would still have to hear from her firstly before they can proceed on anything they 'PLAN' to do. Besides, the controversy surrounding the funds need to be acknowledged; the funds were found in the accounts of 4 different companies, but when frozen, PEJ claims it was her funds. Efcc cant do anything until the hear from her properly. blueto:I wasn't referring to you in that statement; I was referring to PEJ being a sacred cow who the efcc cannot touch without adhering strictly to the due processes. |

blueto: Ur level of ignorance is appaling, and ur show is illiteracy is alarming. Firstly the correct word their is froze. Most times i feel u deliberately shame urself on line for some peanuts or u are actually empty. Firstly, do u know money laudering is? And are u awere the 4 companies who actually laudered the money for PEJ have actually pleaded guilty in court? Are u also aware that such money is forfeited to the govt when found guilty. The money was found in the company's acct not PEJ's acct so why the hell is she making silly noise. In b/w ia she trying to buy a celestial body or what, yow can someone claim over N5bn if for medical bills? I am sure u struggled to buy this data. EFCC can freeze ur account before inviting u to clarify, its done world wide. All needed is a court order... 1 Like |

blueto: PEJ could not have been invited because EFCC did not see PEJ name on the accounts. EFCC saw that some companies accounts contain suspicious funds, hence EFCC started investigating the source of the funds and therefore put the accounts on freeze so that the funds would not be moved out. It was PEJ that came out to say that she money is hers and that she wants to use the money to purchase another life, that was how she got herself involved. 1 Like |

progress69:Can you substantiate that a court order was granted to efcc that enabled them to freeze her account?? Because according PEJ, no court order was granted to efcc to proceed with such farcical move. And can you also substantiated that those alleged deponents were verified deponents and not “hired mercenaries”?? How silly of you to uses invective phrases against someone just because of cacography and your inane and prejudice thinking faculty. Such ludicrous zombies. 1 Like 1 Share |

blueto: Please reason clearly. First this is a country where no one is known. I'm quite sure that Nigeria does not know you. So when there are suspicious transactions(Situations where such amounts have not been hitting your account) obviously they will come for you. Go to USA, UK.. accounts are being monitored and if money hits your account erractically you will be invited for questioning or probably a secret investigation commenses on you. This is a volatile country Irrespective of the political hulabalo surrounding the agency, kindly allow them to function. Also apologize for callingg that guy silly. |
