Abuja One of the Nigerian Air Force (NAF) chiefs implicated in the $2.1 billion arms deal and put under house arrest at Niger Barracks, Abuja has returned N66 million of the N90 million, allegedly traced to him, to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). Consequently, the officer, a Principal Staff Officer at NAF Headquarters, was released from detention and asked to go and look for the balance of the money. An EFCC source, however, said this did not mean he is completely exonerated.


Sunday Vanguard gathered that the other officers being detained by the NAF High Command, on behalf of the EFCC, were not allowed the privileged because they had refused to cooperate fully with the EFCC interrogation team even though some had returned exotic cars and other valuables.

It was also gathered that an Air Commodore, said to have benefitted from the arms deal and has properties in Dubai, Kaduna and Abuja, has been arrested and is in detention. One of the detained Air Vice Marshals (AVMs) is said to be the leader of the team that went to buy aircraft with incomplete parts and also inflated the price from $6million to over $30million. NAF High Command had, on Thursday, stepped up its anti-corruption war with the removal of some officers including Air Officers Commanding and Principal Staff officers manipulated in the arms deal and appointed new Air Officers Commanding.

Meanwhile, the wife of a former Chief of the Air Staff, Mrs. Lara Amosu, detained overnight by the EFCC, has been freed. Sunday Vanguard gathered that the wife was detained following certain accounts related to her husband, being investigated in connection with the $2.1 billion arms cash, allegedly traced to her. Although the exact figure and details of the accounts were not made public, EFCC was said to have interrogated her for hours last week in Lagos. But a source close to the investigation confirmed the woman had been released on bail.

“She is not in our custody having been granted administrative bail. She will be asked to report back whenever we need her for further investigation,” the source said. The source said the money allegedly recovered from the former air chief’s house in Lagos had been kept as exhibit to be used when the trial of suspects in the arms deal begins. The source further alleged that some properties belonging to the former CAS were also held in trust for him by Lara and her children. There were earlier reports that the anti-graft agency had uncovererd N17.5 billion in the accounts of wives of three airforce chiefs.

@ AUGUSTUS CRIME IS NOT ONLY AFFECTING SOUTH AFRICA BUT NIGERIA AS WELL

At a press conference in Osogbo, the police commissioner said four members of the robbery gang, Aderibigbe Oluwaseun, Ndubisi David, Ayuba Abubaka Saliu and Nuhu Jimoh, were arrested and three AK47 rifles with one hundred and twenty four rounds of live ammunition were recovered from them.

According to him, the police responded promptly to distress calls from the banks and exhibited gallantry and professional expertise in combating the armed robbers who were armed with sophisticated weapons and improvised explosive devices.

The police boss also disclosed that seven million, four hundred and eighty-six thousand, three hundred naira (N7,486,300) and a Nissan Sunny car that the robbers used for the operation were recovered from the suspects after their arrest.

He said that the Armoured Personnel Carrier provided for the police in Osun helped the policemen to overpower the armed robbers. He said full scale investigation into the incident has commenced and that the fleeing members of the robbery gang would be apprehended



Two policemen, two bank officials and six passers-by reportedly died in a gun duel between the bandits and the police.

It was gathered that the robbers suspected to be indigenes of Kogi and Benue States had been in Osun State through their informants before eventually launching the attack around 4.00 pm on Friday on the two banks along Ekoeinde road in Ikirun, the headquarters of Ifelodun local government area.

It was further gathered that the bandits successfully overpowered the police in Ikirun and blocked the team from gaining access to the robbery area to dislodge them.

But the DPO from Iragbiji was said to have sprung a surprise when he led a team of police with an Armoured Personnel Carrier (APC) to engage the armed bandits in a gun exchange for about thirty minutes before reinforcements came from Osogbo.

A source said the DPO operated the APC and used it to demobilise the operational vehicle of the armed robbers.

He reportedly killed three of them and foiled the operation.

Police Commissioner, Kola Sodipo, said that two members of the gang were arrested.

Police Public Relations Officer in Osun State, Mrs. Folashade Odoro, explained that the robbers attacked the banks with dynamites and placed explosives in strategic locations in the area where the banks are located.

She, however, said the police anti-bomb squad was able to identify the explosives and successfully diffuse them.

Tragedy occurred on Obalende Bridge on Saturday at about 4pm when a fast moving Kia saloon car with plate number JJJ 537 DP crushed a mechanic, identified simply as Waidi to death and threw him off the bridge.

The victim’s body, it was learnt, landed in a residential area under the bridge with broken head and legs.

When P.M.NEWS correspondent arrived the scene at about 4.25pm huge crowd had gathered on the Obalende bridge trying to catch a glimse of the scene, while the police from the Lion Building Division and the officials of the ambulance section of the Lagos Island General Hospital were also seen evacuating the corpse of the victim into a van with registration number SMK 302 BK to the mortuary.

Officials of the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority, LASTMA, were around to control the heavy traffic that had built up on the bridge.

An eyewitness informed our correspondent that the accident occurred when the victim, a resident of Bariga area of Lagos drop off a bus atop the Obalende bridge and dashed across the road to the other side to continue his journey, unknown to him that a fast moving car was approaching.

According to a motorist, Solomon Ikhide, “dropping picking up of passengers by bus drivers has been causing fatal accidents on the bridge daily.

“Though the police at the Lion Building Division led by the DPO in charge, CSP Antonia Tanaruno and the LASTMAastma officials at Olowu have been doing their best to dislodge the drivers, I am now appealing to the Chairman of the Lagos State Task Force on Environmental Sanitation, SP Olubukola Abe to please deploy his men atop the Obalende bride to assist the police stop illegal loading of passengers to prevent accidents and the untimely deaths on the bridge.”

Another eyewitness, Mr Jude Eshiet, said accidents have claimed the lives of more than ten passengers on the bridge this year alone.

“Security officials should henceforth not allow the death toll to continue and any driver arrested there loading or dropping passengers should be charged to court to serve as a deterrent to others,” Eshiet said.

Efforts made to contact the Task Force Chairman for comment was frustrated by the Unit’s PRO.

@AUGUSTUS POVERTY ON THE INCREASE IN NIGERIA

Seriake Dickson, governor of Bayelsa state, has asked civil servants in the state to brace up for tough times, saying the practice of augmenting monthly salaries with bank loans is no longer sustainable.
Addressing journalists on Thursday in Yenagoa, Bayelsa state capital, Dickson said that with a monthly wage bill of N4 billion for workers, coupled with the shortfall in the monthly allocation from the federation account, it would be difficult for government to meet its financial obligation.
He said he would soon meet with stakeholders to devise a policy aimed at solving the problem of salary payment.
“There have to be some discussions with workers and stakeholders. We cannot be borrowing to pay salaries as we have been doing,” he said.
“Our workforce minus political appointees, we need about N4 billion to pay salaries; the situation is not sustainable and realistic because of our development agenda.”
While allaying fears of workers, Dickson said rather than embark on retrenchment of the workforce and the minimum wage, greater emphasis will be placed on professionalism in the civil service in his second term.
“A lot of states are going to have crisis this year, even the federation itself will face crisis and it’s not peculiar to Bayelsa state,” he said.
“It is important that the workforce in Bayelsa state should learn to appreciate these things before they jump here and there, instigated by failed politicians who couldn’t win election but know how to sponsor demonstrations of old pensioners that they couldn’t pay when they were in office.”
While admonishing civil servants in the state against unwholesome practices such as involvement in partisan politics, payroll fraud and multiple employments, he urged them to be dedicated to their duties and loyal to the government of the day.
“There are a lot of things going on; people have their names in several vouchers, earning salaries above their grade level and all of those things are going to be corrected,” he said.
“I don’t also believe that we should reduce the minimum wage but if our government is getting N3 or N4 billion and our wage bill is N4 billion, then there should be a discussion. I don’t believe that we need to retrench workers because of the economic downturn.”

@AUGUSTUS....IS THIS ONE NOT YOU

The outcry over the menace of ghost worker fraud reverberated in the Senate yesterday when the finance minister, Kemi Adeosun, threw a bombshell by revealing that, with the help of the Biometric Verification Number (BVN) policy, it has been discovered that one civil servant alone collected 20 salaries every month.

She also told the Senate Committee on Finance that the 23,000 ghost workers discovered in the Federal Civil Service would be handed over to EFCC for prosecution.

The adoption of BVN in processing salary payments by the federal government had stunningly thrown up no fewer than 23,000 ghost names on its payroll, a development that raised concerns about the huge amount of monies that may have been stolen from the nation’s coffers through such leakages in the federal civil service.

“What the IPPIS-BVN registration has shown us has been a real revelation. We have identified that there are people who appear on our payroll multiple times. BVN links all the accounts of that person, so we are seeing in our payroll 20 names to one BVN number,” Adeosun said during a budget defence session by the Federal Ministry of Finance before the committee.

The awestruck Senate committee agreed with the minister and directed that the attorney-general of the federation, Abubakar Malami, begin the prosecution and sanctioning of all individuals, firms and banks that aided the inclusion of the 23,000 ghost workers on federal government’s payroll.

LEADERSHIP FRIDAY had also reported exclusively that with the help of the ongoing verification of the Niger State workforce, a messenger at the state’s ministry of finance earned N265,000 monthly and a cleaner at General Hospital, Minna, earned N375,000 monthly, while no fewer than three permanent secretaries in the state’s civil service earned over N1.3 million monthly.

The ghost worker syndrome had been a trend which has sapped public funds since the regime of former President Olusegun Obasanjo up to the immediate past administration when former Minister of Finance, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala held sway in the ministry.

In October 2014, the federal government uncovered a total of 60,000 ghost workers in federal establishments across the country, following the staff audit of the federal government ministries, departments and agencies (MDAs) on the implementation of the Integrated Personnel and Payroll Information System (IPPIS).

Yesterday, Senate’s directive that the AGF, Malami, and the finance minister fastback action in prosecuting firms, banks and individuals linked to the 23,000 ghost worker scam was issued by the chairman, Committee on Finance, Senator John Enoh.

Enoh asked Mrs Adeosun to make sure that her ministry recovers all funds fraudulently received through the ghost workers’ accounts.

During her presentation, the minister lamented that the ghost worker scam had exposed the nation’s revenue system to very serious financial leakages.

She assured the Senate committee that the 23,000 ghost workers discovered in the Federal Civil Service would be handed over to Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), even as she added that banks and firms that connived with civil servants to pad the federal government payroll would also be prosecuted.

Adeosun said, “We have had a meeting on how we are going to clean them off. The process will be that we will suspend that person from the payroll pending the end of the investigation. As we speak now, we have about 23,000 that we need to investigate: those whom either the BVN is linked to multiple payments or the name on the BVN account is not consistent with the name on our own payroll.

“If we are able to get everybody onto the BVN platform, we will be able to save a considerable amount of personnel cost. Not only will we remove those people from our payroll, but we will also be going after the banks involved to collect our money.

“So, some of the information that we are getting is how long has this person been on the pay roll, how much has he been getting.

In some getting the accounts are held by the same bank and in some cases all were opened on the same day. If we are able to prove that banks have colluded with people to pad our payroll, we are not only going to stop those payments but we are also going to try and recover our money”.

On what becomes the fate of defaulting MDAs, the minister said, “My job is to get them off our payroll; what happens from there on goes to the investigative

agencies. We will pass our files onto them and they will take a decision as to what sanctions they will take.

“Mine is that I do not want to pay them anymore, and whatever they have taken must come back; so we are going to hand our files on to EFCC and the relevant agencies.”

She explained to the committee how the use of the BVN policy helped the IPPIS in tracking down the ghost worker scam.

Adeosun said, “The IPPIS programme, funded by World Bank, started about five years ago and what it required was for every officer to come physically for biometric data capture. Over the five years, unfortunately, we have only been able to capture about 295,000 federal civil servants, which represent less than 20 per cent of the total personnel on the federal par roll.

“We realized that if we can get more people on IPPIS, our salary costs will come down and so we needed to get more people on IPPIS. So I looked critically at it with the director of IPPIS, and we decided to change the strategy; rather than getting the person to come physically – which has always been the problem, we will take the payroll that we have and the bank account of everybody who is being paid.

“So, from that bank account we will get the BVN; from the BVN we can get the biometric data, so that considerably accelerated the process of getting people onto IPPIS. I can tell you that within the last two months we have been on this programme, we have been able to enrol 320,000 onto IPPIS using BVN; that is, compared to 295,000 in five years.

“We are very confident with our programme, that we will now be able to get every federally paid civil servant onto IPPIS by June. We are aggressively chasing after June.”

When asked by the committee about the controversy that trailed the Treasury Single Account (TSA), the minister stated that it was not proper for the company managing the transfer to the TSA to have charged MDAs.

Noting that the firm should have been paid a reasonable amount by a central agency of government, she said, “The N25 billion that was allegedly paid out was actually incorrect; it was about N8 billion that was paid and it has been refunded because there was no basis for the deduction.

@AUGUSTUS....COORRUPTION RUNS IN YOUR BLOOD

Former aide-de-camp to former president Goodluck Jonathan, Col. Ojogbane Adegbe has said another Dasukigate may be imminent if he reveals what transpired in that administration.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) picked up Adegbe on Wednesday in Lagos where he was interrogated before he was flown to Abuja yesterday.

It was gathered that ongoing interrogation of the former ADC by operatives of the EFCC could open up a new can of worms, which “could surpass what is now called Dasukigate.”

In December 2015, the Department of State Security (DSS) arrested Jonathan’s National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki and turned him over to the EFCC over his role in the $2.1 billion arms purchase scandal.

The money, meant to purchase arms for the military fighting insurgency in the North-East, was allegedly diverted by the office of the NSA as 2015 campaign funds for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), which was the ruling party then.

EFCC sources said the former ADC may soon give details of all he knows with regards to financial transactions and the dramatic personae involved in the last administration.

Preliminary findings, including recovered documents, were said to have hinted of large-scale questionable expenditure with funds sourced from and outside the arms purchase deals.

Another source said “most of the funds were reportedly diverted soon after the election was postponed from the originally scheduled date of February 14, 2015 to March 28, 2015…”

Among the active participants in the alleged sleaze, was a top official of an agency set up to discourage militancy in the South-South, who is currently outside the country.

At the centre of the interrogation of the former ADC, who has been moved to Abuja, Daily Sun gathered, was the “mind-boggling spending” during the two weeks’ extension of the general election, “which runs into several trillions of naira, when converted from foreign currency.”

Sources said many top Nigerians, “including some very close persons” to the former president, may likely be called to explain and defend their roles in the handling of the funds, a chunk of which was sourced from the agency.

Spokesman for the EFCC, Mr. Wilson Uwujaren could not be reached for comments on the arrest before press time

Col. Adegbe, who was arrested in Lagos a few days ago, was said to be attending a senior officers course outside the former capital city, but on a visit, when he was picked up for interrogation.

Before him, many serving and retired military officers had been interrogated in connection with the arms purchase deal during the Jonathan administration.

They include former Chief of Defence Staff, Air Marshal Alex Badeh (retd) and the former Chief of Air Staff, Air Vice Marshal Amosu (retd) as well as some top politicians.

After arresting Dasuki, the EFCC arrested former chairman of Africa Independent Television (AIT), Chief Raymond Dokpesi, former Sokoto State governor, Alhaji Attahiru Bafarawa, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Publicity Secretary, Chief Olisa Metuh and former national chairman of the party, Alhaji Haliru Bello Mohammed and his son, Abbah.

The anti-graft agency also arrested former governor of Kaduna State, Brigadier General Isa Jafaru, former minister of State for Finance, Ambassador Bashir Yuguda, and the director of Finance and Administration in the Office of the NSA, Mr. Shauibu Salisu

UK and US has millions of foreign doctors who work in their public hospitals and have reserved positions for private clinics and hospitals for local doctors. Our doctors don't just want to be paid peanuts in government hospitals that's why SA has more private hospitals than public hospitals just like in highly developed countries and even when you close down public hospitals, SA health system will not collapse.

Our doctors don't just want to be paid peanuts in government hospitals that's why SA has more private hospitals than public hospitals just like in highly developed countries and even when you close down public hospitals, SA health system will not collapse.

Liar !!!!

I live in USA, there is NO reserve of private clinical practice for local indeginous doctors. Many immigrant doctors have just private clinics where they are their own boss, because it is easier work.

Zulu Bantus have no brain to study medicine and surgery, you need Nigerian doctors to keep South African citizens alive or else Zulu man go die plenty o !

False story, South African mercenaries do NOT exist and NEVER existed in Nigeria, we hired your men as basic mechanics for SA made MRAPS and new Gazelle helicopter to do repairs and engine servicing.

Or I guess the 100 Cuban ex-army mechanics maintaining SANDF vehicles are mercenaries too, they came to help South African army fight Rhino poachers and to train your army in combat tactics from Cuban bush war experience of Angola, the tactics tbey used to beat up yöur white masters SADF.

OK, do you mean America that is in your dreams? What I know is that America is largely capitalist state where private sector dominate over public sector same as South Africa which is free market system. Private clinics and hospital are private and they are owned by individuals who would normally prefer local trained doctors than foreign doctors. Now that's why public sector would run for foreign doctors from poor countries to look out for citizens who would normally not afford private medical care.


We have many Zulu doctors who have private surgeries in black townships dummy and mostly have studied in former black only medical university called MEDUNSA.

Don't bring stale news because I brought you something fresh.

Bwahahaha… Confirmed by Buhari because Jonathan never wanted to come out with it because of shame and so he had to create propaganda to come out of the corner. If it was confirmed by Buhari then we don't need a ruler. It is straight forward. Jonathan also hired hinds gunships from South Africa.

Maybe, agaugust would illicitly explain to us what had Barlow and his men were doing in Nigeria? Barlow is not a mechanic either, he is a co-founder of Executive Outcomes, PMC company and former special operator.

@AUGUSTUS IS AN ANGRY MAN CONSUMED BY ENVY AND HATING HIMSELF TO HAVING BORN IN NIGERIA.....HIS ANTICS TO PROTECT HIS COUNTRY IS TRYING TO APPEASE HIS SENIORS OR MAYBE LOOKING FOR EMPLOYMENT. THUS BEING A PRAISE SINGER AND DRIVEN BY POLITICS OF THE STOMACH.

SOMETIMES PEOPLE LIKE @AUGUSTUS HOLD A CORE BELIEF THAT IS VERY STRONG. wHEN THEY ARE PRESENTED WITH EVIDENCE THAT WORKS AGAINST THAT BELIEF, THE NEW EVIDENCE CANNOT BE ACCEPTED. IT WOULD CREATE A FEELING THAT IS EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE, CALLED COGNITIVE DISSONANCE AND BECAUSE IT IS IMPORTANT TO PROTECT THE CORE BELIEF, THEY WILL RATIONALIZE, IGNORE AND EVEN DENY ANYTHING THAT DOESNT FIT IN WITH THE CORE BELIEF.
