"Ikoyi Whistle-Blower Will Be Paid This Month" – Adeosun by TheTrueSeeker: 8:03pm On Nov 12, 2017 |
The Minister of Finance, Mrs Kemi Adeosun, on Sunday said that the whistle-blower who informed the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission of the N13bn recovered from an Ikoyi apartment in Lagos would be paid this month. Adeosun said this in a statement issued by her Special Adviser, Media and Communications, Mr Oluyinka Akintunde. She denied claims that the government had withheld any fund due to any whistle-blower, adding that the delay was caused by the administrative procedures that must be fulfilled before such funds are released. The statement read in part, “The attention of the Honourable Minister of Finance, Mrs. Kemi Adeosun, has been drawn to media reports surrounding the payment to a whistleblower, who provided the tips that led to the recovery of funds stashed away in a property in Ikoyi, Lagos State. “The Honourable Minister wishes to state unequivocally that the Federal Government has not withheld any fund due to any whistleblower. “The ministry has in place detailed procedures for processing payments due under the whistleblower policy. “The procedures were designed to prevent abuse and legal disputes and to ensure protection of the information providers. “These procedures include an application by the agency who recovered the funds including evidence of the recovery, confirmation that there are no pending legal issues on the recovery, verification of the identity of the information provider, calculation of the amount payable and computation of relevant taxes. “It must be stated also that payments are made in monthly batches to ensure control and to protect the identity of information providers. “To date, over 20 of such persons have been paid. From available records, the payment due on Ikoyi is among those being processed in the November batch, which will be released within the current month.” Adeosun restated that the whistleblowing policy of the Federal Government remains one of the current administration’s successful initiatives and that the government was fully committed to ensuring that all those who responded to the policy and partnered with it in the recovery effort are paid in full and most importantly have their identity protected. The whistleblower policy was introduced in December 2016 by the Federal Government as part of the initiatives to wage war against corruption. http://punchng.com/seized-ikoyi-n13bn-whistle-blower-ll-be-paid-this-month-adeosun/ 3 Likes 3 Shares

Same govt. that introduced the policy now making a mess of it....!!! At last the payment is about to be made to a 'mad man' because he screamed foul abi? They should tell us how many people have been paid so far and also the exact amount discovered in the Ikoyi house otherwise I see the 'mad man' suing the FG if his full commission of about N850m is not paid 61 Likes 1 Share |

He should have been paid before now. Delaying the payment of the whistleblowers brings about losing interest in the policy. Justice delayed is justice denied! 47 Likes 1 Share |

The present administration is just laced with lies and deceit. If the EFCC had not made the false claims about the whistle blower being rewarded, we wouldn't have known the truth about his case. So this had to come to limelight before the FG can own up. What a shame! I only fear for the safety of these whistle blower.... The FG should have provided maximum security since he leaked the information about the Ikoyigates# Potential whistle blowers, tread cautiously. The FG cannot guarantee your safety and reward. 56 Likes |

Even Kemi Adeosun been wan follow scam the guy... Payments will be made in batches ![]() ![]() Like someone said above, if the guy gets N5m of the N850m, he should thank his stars! Next you will hear is, government has contracted some fund managers to manage the fund for the guy and will be paying him the proceeds in piecemeal! They can even claim to borrow the N800m from the money to fund 2018 budget. 53 Likes |

But during a press briefing with Magu in Switzerland or which country was he then, when he was asked if he has paid, the whistle blower of #IkoyiGate,,he's response was, he has been paid. He even went ahead that they are trying to protect the person and help him chose a good business idea to invest the money with, as the person has never seen million before in his life. Honestly, this administration is just full of lies, and propaganda. I hope they pay the person 15 Likes 2 Shares |
