EFCC WIDENS INVESTIGATIONS…AS FEAR SPREADS IN MDA’s.

Image result for EFCC AND CORRUPTION FIGHTFear is now the key factor in Ministries, Departments and Agencies as the EFCC spreads its dragnet. The reason is that there is no more hiding space for those fingered in corrupt cases. Nigerians, known for their penchant for lying have now been boxed into the corner by the EFCC. A director of Finance in one of the Pension directorate who allegedly owned 24 houses and disguised them in various pseudo names was swiftly caught. Asked to explain where he got the money to purchase the houses, he said a “family friend” obliged him with loans. The family friend is now in the net for obvious lies! The deed of Agreement he presented was written in someone’s name but the signature was his! The EFCC went ahead to scrutinize all his banking transactions, actual loans borrowed. The company’s he registered were also found to contain names of his wife, brothers, sons, in-laws as directors. “Government officials think they can just perpetrate any crime and go away scot free”, said an insider in EFCC. “Thank God we now have a no nonsense leader who is allowing us to do our jobs”.  Many officials found wanting are simply owning up and pleading for mercy. “Telling ordinary truth would actually help your case”, said an insider. And as it is, that appears to be the case as many underground moves are being carried out to escape justice.

To date it was gathered that the EFCC has received several petitions exposing corrupt directors most especially in the finance directorates. The Currency department of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) is also under focus. That department according to an insider familiar with operations had disclosed that too much rot exists and should be curbed. “The officials there are obviously sacred cows and behave as though they are untouchable”, said another source, “but we will reach whoever is fingered in illicit deals”. The NDDC, Presidential Amnesty Programme, and not least the National Library are all affected.

Kuje, a suburb in the capital city of Abuja is witnessing an unusual traffic: hundreds of worshippers are seen trooping to stadium road in Kuje where Bishop David Edobor, General Overseer of the Joshua Generation Church is blazing the trail, performing spiritual feats, healing, delivering and restoring damaged destinies. The young General Overseer popularly known as “mathematical prophetic” “accuracy bazooka” has declared repeatedly: ‘you can doubt my prophesies, but you cannot doubt the outcome!” Preaching last Sunday, 16 th September, the cleric disclosed that the examination of life has no timetable unlike that of common exams.

The Independent Corrupt Practice and Other Related Matters Offences Commission (ICPC) were set as an anti-corruption agency to rein in persons involved in suspected shady deals and sharp practices. But in recent times as investigations have revealed The commission appears to have derailed as it is fast losing that tag as an anti-corruption agency.  Preliminary investigations have unearthed some sharp practices of illegal detentions on spurious charges, unauthorized raid and sealing of victims houses and unwarranted blockages of victim’s accounts. “This bad practice must be discontinued” declared Mr Rafiu Ibrahim, Secretary-General of Association for Good Governance and Transparency (AFGT). Throwing more light on the sad development, the Secretary-General wondered why the ICPC would detain without charges any suspected Nigerian for upwards of two weeks without proceeding to court, while systematically extorting various sums of money from the detained Nigerian.  The Secretary-Ge...
