Nigeria’s Minister for Transport, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi is grappling to save his wife, Mrs. Judith Amaechi from probe over the looting of N48 billion from a contract she received from the Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC, when Nelson Brambaifa was the acting Managing
Director.

Brambaifa, a lackey of Amaechi was appointed Acting MD of NDDC in January 2019. He was sacked in August 2019 following allegations of
corruption in NDDC under his leadership.

Sources at the NDDC conversant with the deal told Pointblanknews that Mrs. Amaechi had through her Non for profit organization,
Empowerment Support Initiatives, ESI, received a N70billion contract from the agency to train Niger Deltans in skills such as Tailoring, Soap making, Carpentry and others.

After the award of contract to ESI, sources told Pointblanknews that Mrs Amaechi’s wife received N48billion.



Mrs. Amaechi’s ESI said it trained of over 2000 women and youths drawn from the twenty-there LGAs of RIVERS STATE and non-indigenes in COLD PROCCES SOAP MAKING, trained 100 women drawn from the 23 LGAs RIVERS STATE in elaborate fashion Designing in the following areas: Patterns and cuttings, Sewing, Finishing, Fashion &Designing, Colours, Packing, General Management of Business.

Other training ESI claimed was done includes:

Elaborate skills Training programme in Fashion Designing Facilitated by a renowned Fashion
Designer, Ade Bakare Couture for the following artisans in the fashion industry: Sewing and tailoring, Hat Making & Millinery, Bead Making,
Fashion Illustration, Fashion Modelling.

Mrs Amaechi’s ESI was a major contractor with the NDDC and she used Brambaifa who was nominated for the acting MD position in NDDC by her husband to collect several contracts running into billions most of which were never done, a source at the agency told pointblanknews.

While one source said the N48billion was paid to ESI in split payment of N4billion monthly, another source at the Finance Department of the NDDC told pointblanknews that the N48billion was paid in installment payment of N4billion weekly.

A report of the scandalous contract has now been tabled before theAttorney General and Minister for Justice, Abubakar Malami, who in turn is alleged to have used it to threaten the Transport Minister.

Amaechi and Governor Ahmed Elrufai of Kaduna state are both eyeing the Presidency and Vice Presidency in 2023. They belong to a rival group in the All Progressive Congress, APC, that is opposed to the Malami group.

Sources told Pointblanknews that the report of the N48billion contract from the NDDC is now being used to silence Amaechi and torpedoed his ambition.

“Amaechi now runs to Tunde, Buhari’s PA to help him lobby Malami so his wife is not prosecuted. This is why Amaechi no longer talks tough or says anything to his supporters about 2023 or his ambition. He is very worried,” a source close to the Transport Minister told Pointblanknews.

According to the source, Amaechi is afraid that the Attorney General may use the documents of the looting in his custody either now or in the future to blackmail him.

The former MD of NDDC, Prof Brambaifa, his sons, David and Christopher Brambaifa, former Executive Director of Finance, Chris Amadi, his wife Anna, Preye Brambaifa, Greg David Osuma, Clara Osuma, Mike Ayapaye, Uche Aleke, Sunday Aguebor, Brigadier Charles Nengite and Tony Chukwu, most of whom are Amaechi’s lackey were all accused of looting over N100billion within three months of Brambaifa’s tenure.

While Nengite is currently facing prosecution by the Military, the rest are yet to be prosecuted.

Sources told pointblanknews that Brambaifa had told investigators when he was first interrogated by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, that he gave N66billion to support the Buhari’s Presidential Campaign in 2019.

The N66billion according to insiders was allegedly giving to Amaechi who was a member of the APC Presidential Campaign team.

In 2017, Amaechi told a Nigerian Television Station during an interview that he is not corrupt and don’t like money.

“I have told Nigerians and I repeat today that I am not corrupt and that I don’t like money. I am not one swayed by money.

“I have lived a character that most Nigerians can tell you.

“I try as much as... https://chrisosamedia.com/2021/05/07/amaechi-wife-looted-n48-billion-from-nddc-minister-goes-cold-begs-for-soft-landing-pointblank-reports/

Glorification of politics and politicking is the bane of the predicament we find ourself in the country.

Imagine the hundreds of kilometres of solid road, good schools, solid hospitals and world-class IT that the alleged money would build.

It's obvious that Nigerians (bother the leader and the led) are the problems of this country.

Don't be surprised when some muggins (both online and offline) start defending these corrupt couples.

I'm afraid, the name and geography of Nigeria may be wiped into extinction if this trend of looting persistently continues for the next 6 years.
