He will be set free by efcc soon.going by the latest supreme court judgment,efcc does not have the jurisdiction to try him.cc fer.gie001
EFCC can prosecute him.

What the Supreme Court said is this:
The EFCC cannot prosecute any State Governor or State Contractor for embezzlement of money because it is a Federal Law. For this set of people, only the House of Assembly or the State Corruption Agency or the Police can do that. If the EFCC will go ahead, they must get a fiat from the State Attorney-General.

The EFCC cannot prosecute anyone for perversion of Justice.

This said retired Military General worked for the FG, hence EFCC can go ahead & prosecute him, with an OK from the AGF.

With this ruling, State governors will totally finish Nigeria. They will exploit all legal technicalities.

Immunity for sitting governors should be removed.

The Supreme Court is saying Criminal and Penal Codes exist in States already, so why should the AGF dabble into States when we have some principle of Federalism. (See Sections 174, 211 of the 1999 Constitution).

The EFCC's job is to prevent illicit financial outflow from Nigeria. I support the NASS to do something about it ASAP.

No,the efcc is a national agency not a federal agency so their jurisdiction is statewide.moreover those state penal laws are inferior to federal laws plus most States do not have financial crimes agency.

I keep saying it ,governors are the major problem of Nigeria. They handle both state and local government resources as if its their personal assets. They do everything with impunity.

It is their responsibility to create one. Many of them have started: Kano, Rivers, Lagos et al....Their Houses of Assemblys are empowered to create one. Between now and December, many will commence to protect themselves.

EFCC is a Federal Agency, so they are empowered by the National Assembly just like the State Anti-Corruption Agencies are empowered by their own States Houses of Assemblys.

S.15(5): The State shall abolish all corrupt practices and abuse of power.

It depends on the summons the case is built on.

Why is EFCC hiding his identify? Why hiding a criminal's identify
Re: 24 Properties Seized From A Top Military Officer By EFCC (Photos) by loganx: 4:59pm On Feb 16, 2022
Nigeria is the only country where a political thief will be caught and his or her name will be kept a secret. The reason is not far-fetched, those that caught him/her are also thieves and would not want their names to be mentioned should they be caught.

It is a common understanding to protect professional public looters.
