The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission(EFCC) on Friday, June 3, 2016, arraigned a serving military officer, Major General Emmanuel Atewe, the former Director General of NIMASA Patrick Ziadeke Akpobolokemi, Kime Engozu and Josphine Otuaga before Justice Saliu Saidu of the Federal High Court, Ikoyi on an 11 count charge bordering on conspiracy, abuse of office and money laundering.



Major General Atewe, currently serving in TRADOC Minna as Director of Doctrinal and Combat Development, was also a former Guard Brigade Commander at the Presidency as well as Joint Task Force Commander Pulo Shield Port Harcourt.




The Commission received an intelligence report in June 2015 alleging that the management of NIMASA under the leadership of Ziadeke Patrick Akpobokelemi made payments aggregating to the tune of N8,537,586,798.58 to Joint Task Force Operation Pulo Shield’s Zenith Bank Account with substantial part of the money diverted and transferred through several individuals and companies who served as proxies. Investigations revealed that General Atewe in a grand conspiracy with Akpobokelemi converted about N6,038,350,741 of the initial sum to United States Dollars through various Bureau De Change companies which were handed over to Kime Enzogu and Josephine Otuaga who were business partners to Akpobokelemi and thereafter shared by the defendants.




Part of the money was found to have been used in buying choice properties in Port Harcourt and Abuja as well as acquisition of shares in blue chip companies. Justice Saidu adjourned the case to the 24th of June, 2016, for commencement of trial.

Buhari the great slayer of Corruption and Thieves.

Who could have thought there will be a Nigerian,that can look at a thieving General in the face,and send them to face the sweet music of Atutupoyoyo in the Gulag?

God bless you Buhari.

The Journey of sanitizing Nigeria is a gradual process,and after you deal with these left over kleptomaniancs from Jonathan's era,we will then face the economic saboteurs of this great Country.

Gradually and gradually,the noose is getting close to Goodluck Jonathan.

I will kill a Capon(castrated male fowl)the day Jonathan is arrested,tried and sentenced to jail.

hmm

See their faces yam eaters

It is a good thing....that we are thoroughly investigating the corrupt and hopefully, this means that this won't happen again.

But unfortunately.....Nigerians and corruption are like peas in a pod.

After all....this is the country where someone was castigated for returning a large sum of money he found somewhere to its owner some years ago.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm................crying for my country nigeria

okay next

Is everybody a thief in this country

na wa

Mehn.... 9ja is fûcked up on so many levels
Week in week out, it is always EFCC arraigned this person or that person..
This helped my case when i said in my other post that PMB or GEJ are not solely to blame in 9ja economic woes...
There are other players in the corruption system...
Just like these guys..... Imagin N8.5b . So basically these 3 people out over 150 million Nigerians embezzled almost 0.5% of 2016 budget..

Nice one from Efcc but abeg hunt for all criminals

With all these revelations, politicians are our biggest problem in this country. I think Gej deserves an award as the most clueless and insensitive president ever in this country. How could billions change hands in a country where poverty is raging like wild fire with president unaware of it. Haba, this is too much nah. And some fools will come here to quote me as if there is no sense in their brain again.

Oya...Vomit the yam you have eaten.
Surprisingly...he is still in military service

Kudos to EFCC.

Witchhunt

Indeed....it is always a witchhunt with you Nigerians.....North or South.

And after....you people would be wondering why you do not have light or potable water.

Better stop excusing wrong doing. The more we clear the corrupt out of our leadership space....the better for us.
