ThE Anambra State Government has accused the Minister of Justice and Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami (SAN), of allegedly being behind the recent move by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission against the state governor, Willie Obiano.
The state Commissioner of Information and Public Enlightenment, Don Adinuba, alleged that the EFCC is supervised by the Office of the AGF, while Malami had made efforts to frustrate the recent governorship election in Anambra.
Adinuba, who spoke on Politics Today, a current affairs programme on Channels Television which our correspondent monitored from Abuja on Thursday, stated that EFCC’s action is politically motivated.
He said, “Nobody invited him (the governor) to interrogate him or hear his own side of the story. No petition was presented to him. He did not make any comments. But all of a sudden, the EFCC announced rather secretly…using the media as a third party…to announce that he is being watched. That is very surprising. There is absolutely no reason for that. And worse, the EFCC gave the impression that the governor wants to bolt away when he has a while four months to remain in office.

“It is unimaginable that a governor will abandon a state a whole four months to the end of his tenure. That is surprising. It just does not make sense to anyone simply because the whole exercise is politically motivated.”
When asked who he was referring to, the commissioner said, “I will repeat who these people are. The very people who did not want election to hold in Anambra State and had the audacity to tell the whole nation that the election was not going to hold for security reasons, without clearance with the President.

“Immediately the President got to know of this plot, he was alarmed and said ‘no, the election must hold in Anambra and it must be free and fair’. And the election actually became free, fair and transparent, and its outcome is in sync with the sentiments and expectations of the generality of not only Anambra people but all Nigerians.
“Consequently, Soludo’s victory became a national phenomenon. These people have tried everything possible to stop AGPA’s representative, Soludo, and consequently winning the election. They went as far as approving a Customary Court in Abuja to obtain summons – criminal summons – on Soludo. They went as far as arranging a kangaroo judgment from a High Court in Jigawa State over the chairmanship of APGA and more importantly the authentic candidate of APGA in the November 6 gubernatorial election in Anambra State.”      ,,

I think this Malami of a man hates anything Igbos.

Malami is a failure, the worst Attorney general ever in the history of nigeria. Quota system SAN that is even worse than a charge and bail lawyer.

When an illiterate and drug addict is on power, this is the result.

You'll not see him spearhead the arrest of the frog eyes because that one arranges drugs for him to sniff alot

Things are happening

Let Willie go and give account of his stewardship. If he's innocent their is not much EFCC can do to him.

Look at fayose today he's a free man. When you are innocent you will not be bothered and be throwing up nonsensical sentiments.

Look at Peter Obi today, he still came out of government reasonably clean and which is why you don't see him running from one party to another

Evil malami

The governor has nothing to be afraid of if there are no skeletons in his closet.

He should borrow a leaf from Gov Ayo Fayose who took the bull by the horns and reported himself to EFCC

Malami is a toddler in adult body, even toddlers are wiser than him.
