Governor Willie Obiano has told the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) that he will be relocating to his United States base when he leaves office next March.

Reacting yesterday to Wednesday’s placement of the governor on a watch list by the anti-graft agency, Anambra State Commissioner for Information and Public Enlightenment, Don Adinuba, accused EFCC of acting a script.

He said his principal, currently out of the country, never disguised when he embarked on the foreign trip.

The commissioner said the governor has made it public that he would relocate to his U.S. residence at the end of his tenure.

The commissioner said the governor has made it public that he would relocate to his U.S. residence at the end of his tenure.

“Nigerians were dismayed that the EFCC went a new low on Wednesday, November 24, 2021, when it sponsored media reports claiming that it has placed Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra State on its watch list. The EFCC provided no details of how Governor Obiano has been placed on its watch list but made a reference to a letter it purportedly wrote on November 15, 2021, to the Comptroller General of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) asking it to inform the anti-graft agency anytime the governor is travelling out of the country,” Adinuba stated.

EFCC should just relax...

One of the reasons why the country is in a mess.

They steal & destroy the State. Abuse the power they are given. Let loose their thugs & killers who then resort to robbery & kidnapping. Put the country into a state of lawlessness...

Then relocate with their families to better societies...

Why don't you remain in Anambra to enjoy the MASSIVE infastructures you put in place?

I guess this is the reason

What's even the essence of this EFCC putting somebody on watch list? It's like alerting a criminal to destroy or cover up whatever evidence you have against him.

It's only a tree that knows you are coming to cut it down & yet doesn't run away.

so you no fit stay in Anambra nd enjoy all the developments u bring to Anambra abi na audio development full everywhere...

If indeed this man has achieved that much in 8 years, methinks he will be better off staying back to enjoy the Anambra he built!

Abi no be so ?

That was where he was before he became governor na

even right now he’s outta of the country


So efcc cannot investigate in secret unless they cast theirselves in the media

mrvitalis:

Then he should have stayed there & contested for elections over there.

Simple!!!

If he was so sure he did well, he would have brought down his investments to his state as proof that he had been able to turn around the fortunes of the state for better.

Good information
DSS n EFCC got you my Dear

Anambra Airport is Dope. At least you tried.

Thought you are coming to the SENATE 2023

ivandragon:


Then he should have stayed there & contested for elections over there.

His people requested he come govern them how's that your business

If EFCC r really jobless this time,. I think they should go probe that fat man in Abia state government house umuahia...

Nonsense

I just don't know what to tell this man

One of the most useless comments from a Governor i have ever heard.

You mean to say, you ruled for 8 years in a state you couldn't raise and build to a standard and level worth leaving in even after your tenure is an abysmal thought not even to say.

Nigeria really has a very strong foundamental problem.

Emagin someone who base abroad and people who frequent the developed world being give oppotuinities to govern states and a country . Yet these bunch of men can't replicate one good thing they see in the developed countries.

This country ee

Abi no be so ?

Brother na so oooo

Clap for yourself Oga dragon

EFCC are obviously acting out a script here

Why has Ganduje not been placed on watch list

Why the likes of Malami, Garba Shehu and Bumi not on efcc watch list?

PointZerom:
Why don't you remain in Anambra to enjoy the MASSIVE infastructures you put in place?

Governor Obiano should be given kudos for his performance.

At least he tried compared to Okorocha who brought in family interest in governance of Imo state.

He will relocate with all the state funds and America won’t do jack about it because it will benefit them as well.

Look at one of the useless politicians that we have in this country, and the worse part is that his people are all over blaming Buhari for his failure to perform because of hatred and tribalism

People who have dual citizenship most give up their other pasport to contest for election. If you know you and your family most live in the mess or nest you created after office you will do everything to leave a better state.

Hmm...to a very comfortable retirement.

There's a message this man is passing thru buh u guys don't understand.. Efcc is placing him on a watch list because they think he will run for another office once he's out as a governor. Its like a payback to what APGA did to APC in Anambra. Now he is saying look I'm not going to run for any office.

Wait do you guys know the amount of money and preparation APC did to make sure they win the elect with a landslide victory. It's like magic.. they still don't understand what happened Andy Uba is in shock
