Day 'Jonathan' Phoned Me To Set Free Suspect Who Stole Billions of Subsidy Fund - Ex-EFCC Boss, Waziri Reveals Shocking Secret

Jonathan farida waziri
A former Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Mrs. Farida Waziri, says she was glad in retrospect that ex-President Goodluck Jonathan kicked her out of office.

She said had she not been sacked, she would have been traumatised by now, given the ongoing revelation of alleged grand corruption that took place under Jonathan’s administration.

Waziri said the EFCC under Jonathan was not given free hand to operate, saying she got the first indication of it during the probe of the fuel subsidy scam.


She said it was her refusal to back down from the probe of one of the masterminds of the fuel subsidy scam that earned her a dismissal by Jonathan.

A statement on Sunday quoted the ex-EFCC helmsman as saying this during an interaction with journalists at an unnamed event, which she attended in Lagos at the weekend.

She was said to have been asked to react to the revelation about the alleged grand sleaze that took place under Jonathan’s watch.

“I’m only glad that those things didn’t happen under my watch as the EFCC Chairman because it would have been too traumatic for me. And that is why if I see President Jonathan today, I will kneel down to thank him for the honour done me by removing me as the EFCC Chairman at the time he did.

“My first strong premonition of what was ahead was when I began the probe of the monumental oil subsidy fraud going on then.

“I came to Lagos on a vital intelligence on the subsidy scam and as soon as I arrested a key culprit I got a call from the Presidential Villa asking me to release the suspect, because, in their words, ‘he is our person’, but I refused to let him off and days after I was removed from office,” Waziri was quoted to have said.

How Our General Overseer DUPED Us - Church members cry out

Culled from New Telegraph

Bishop Ginika Obi
Victims of an alleged Ponzi scheme operated by the General Overseer of City of Liberation and Comfort International Ministry, aka Seed of Life Ministries in Enugu State, Bishop Ginika Obi, have revealed the disturbing experiences they went through in the hands of the cleric.

Obi also runs a financial money deposit scheme known as Building Your Generation Organisation (BGO) Foundation.

Investigations revealed that the church was set up primarily to gather membership to feed the financial scheme as the church members were initially recruited to, not only make personal deposits, but also serve as canvassers, to bring in other investors.


The investors, who had since came to their senses, are now clamouring for refund of their initial deposits.

The victims said they deposited different sums of money ranging from N200, 000 to N3million in the scheme with hope of receiving double of such amounts within weeks.
They would later realise they had been conned as Obi, allegedly refused to double the money and also refused to return their initial deposits.

Rather than return their money, Obi regaled them with bizarre tales of how the money, which he usually pays investors, comes directly from heaven. He further told them that he wouldn’t be able to pay them because the Holy Spirit has instructed him to stop paying.

One of the victims said: “In fact, he demanded that we should deposit more money, if we wanted him to pay us. This was before the bubble burst and police got him arrested.”
The police hierarchy said it was determined to get justice for those duped. The Enugu State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), a Superintendent of Police (SP), Ebere Amaraizu, said that Obi would be charged for Conspiracy and Advance Fee Fraud.

Amaraizu said: “The Bishop, with others at large, defrauded some victims of several millions of naira. He collected their money and promised them that they would reap bumper financial dividends in return (Ponzi scheme). He tricked them to pay various sums of money to his church/office, located at Kilometer 111 Enugu/Port- Harcourt Expressway, Enugu South Local Government Area of Enugu State.”

The PPRO said that Obi’s arrest came after investigations carried out by operatives of the Enugu State Commissioner of Police Monitoring Unit, anchored on several petitions against Obi and his partners.

According to Amaraizu, when Obi and his partners realised the game was up and that the police were onto them, they went underground.

After weeks of hunting for the fleeing conmen, one of them, Obi, was finally located at a hotel, around Amechi road axis of the state.

The news of Obi’s arrest travelled like a wildfire, leading to hundreds of victims besieging the Enugu State Police Command. He was charged to court and remanded in prison custody, from where he would be going for trial.

When he was first arraigned before Justice A. Liman of the Federal High Court, he was granted bail, but had to be remanded in prison custody, after he couldn’t meet his bail conditions. At that arraignment, an 82 count-charge was brought against Obi and he pleaded not guilty.

The bail conditions stipulated that Obi should get two sureties; a Director in Government Ministry and a traditional ruler from his community, and a sum of N50 million bonds in case he jumps bail. He was remanded on October 12, 2017, to enable further hearing of his case, which has been adjourned to November 1st and 2nd 2017 respectively. On November first and second, many witnesses appeared to testify on how Obi allegedly swindled them.



One of the victims, who simply identified himself as Aneke, a 300Level student, Science and Computer Education, Enugu State University of Science and Technology (ESUT), said that like most of the victims, he is a member of Obi’s church.

He said: “One day, Bishop announced that there was a business he would introduce to us. He explained that if we deposited N7, 500, we would be paid N20, 000 at the end
of three weeks. He said those that deposited N18, 000, would receive N30, 000, and so on. He started demonstrating it by paying initial depositors. I joined
later, and even invested other students’ money; some of them are students of ESUT and Institute of Management and Technology (IMT). I was the contact person because I worship in the church. Many of them sent money through me for the scheme.

“We paid the money in November 2016; we had hoped that Bishop would pay by December. When it was December time, he failed to pay. He promised January and by then, examination was fast approaching; the money was our school fees. I stopped going to school; it was dangerous for me to keep going to school because of the students. Many of them were planning bad things against me. It affected my studies.



“Bishop was still in church then. He started dribbling me; asking me to come today, come tomorrow. Most days, I would go to his place and be there until nightfall. At a time, he said that banks refused to pay him. But even in this situation, he kept asking us to bring more money that he would pay us.

One of the victims, a girl, gave me N108, 000, which I gave to Bishop. After a while, Bishop went underground. We couldn’t find him. Whenever we got him on phone, he would make promises, but didn’t fulfill them. This is the first investment of some of the students that paid through me. Till date, these students have not paid their school fees.”
Another depositor, Nnaemeka, a fashion designer, recounted his experience.

He said: “I invited my in-laws, my mother, sisters and other people into the scheme. I deposited N1.4 million. Bishop promised to pay in three weeks. But at the due time, he said Holy Spirit told him to stop paying. My mum had a burial, she needed money. It was the reason she came to meet Bishop.

She needed assistance. He asked her how much she had. She said N200, 000. He told her invest the money, that she would get N500, 000. I have since become enemy of those I invited to join the scheme.

“Bishop told us that the money he pays to investors comes from heaven. When he stopped payment, people asked why, he said Holy Spirit asked him to stop. During Christmas period, he asked people to go and bring school fees, house rent and other money.

He said they should not keep money in banks. He said that through the power of the Holy Spirit, the money would be doubled. After Christmas, when school resumed in January, he disappeared.”

Chinelo, who said she was not a direct victim, explained that the organization, where she works, runs a thrift society, and that they invested the money contributed by members into the scheme. She disclosed that the money ran into millions of naira.

During the last court appearance, Obi pleaded with the court to lighten his bail conditions, so that he could leave prison, to go and look for ways to refund his victims.

He told the court that his traditional ruler was too old and couldn’t come to court to stand surety for him. But some of his victims told our correspondent that Obi was lying.

They explained that Obi had no reasonable person that cared enough to get involved in the cleric’s fraudulent mess; hence nobody was coming or ready to stand surety for him.

BREAKING: The 2 Jeeps We Gave To Aisha Buhari NOT PERSONAL - Police Opens Up At Last


The Nigeria Police Force may have admitted it gave two Prado Jeeps to the President Muhammadu Buhari's wife, Aisha, but not for her personal usage, Fresh report according to The Nation Newspaper says

According to the report, the Police, however, denied claimed that it bought the Jeeps for the First Lady

Senator Isah Misau when he appeared before the Senate Adhoc Committee alleged that the Inspector General of Police (IGP) gave Aisha Buhari the vehicles.


The police while making clarifications on the allegation noted that the car was only given to the Aide to Buhari’s Wife after a request was made.

The police also said the car was given to the convoy for security purposes.

On the claim that the IGP Manipulated his retirement age, the Police explained that the difference in the date was just 12 days adding that it was insignificant.

Reacting to the allegation in Abuja Thursday, the Force Spokesman, CSP Jimoh Moshood said: “It is pertinent to state that at no time did the Wife of the President and Commander in Chief of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Mrs Aishat Buhari requested directly or indirectly for vehicles for her use from the Inspector General of Police and no vehicle whether Jeep or SUV has ever been given for her personal use.

“To set the record straight and disabuse the minds of the public most especially those who must have read the story, that the Inspector General of Police is empowered by the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as amended and the Police Act and Regulations, precisely Section 215 (1)(a&b) and (2) “The Nigeria Police Force shall be under the command of the Inspector General Police“ and the Deployment and Control of the entire Operations of the Force including allocation of Police vehicles for operational use throughout the country shall be under the purview of the IGP.

“It is within the powers of the Inspector General of Police as stated above that when on the 17th January, 2017, SP Sani M Baba –Inna, the ADC “Wife of the President” Federal Republic of Nigeria requested for two vehicles for Police Personnel in the convoy of Wife of the President for convoy movement and security purposes.

Two Police Vehicles  (i) A Toyota Sienna Bus with Reg. No. NPF 2406D (ii) A Toyota Hiace Bus with Reg. No. NPF 3363D were approved by the Inspector General of Police to the ADC “Wife of the President” SP Sani M Baba –Inna for the purposes requested and not to the person of the Wife of the President or for her personal use as alleged by Misau.

“The Nigeria Police Force categorically wishes to state that all the allegations made by Misau against the Inspector General of Police and the Wife of the President, Federal Republic of Nigeria of buying two (2) Jeeps for the Wife of the Presidents as reported in some media are baseless, untrue and done in bad faith to misinform and mislead the Public.”

On IGP’s retirement age, Moshood described the allegation as Ill-motive.

Moshood while displaying the copy of the letter to Journalists said: “For avoidance of doubt, the Nigeria Police Force Headquarters, Force Secretary Office wrote the Chairman, Police Service Commission on the 18th of January, 2017 drawing the attention of the Commission to the observation on the current Staff List of Senior Police Officers whereby the date of birth of the Inspector General of Police, IGP Idris, was incorrectly stated as 3/01/1959 instead of the actual date 15/01/1959.

“All documents and records of the IGP has 15/01/1959 as his date of birth except the staff list Senior Police Officers and this is the reason why the approval of the Honourable Chairman, Police Service Commission for correction of the error was sought in this regard.

“The difference of dates between 3/01/1959 and 15/01/1959 is just 12 days which is very insignificant in 35 years that a public servant can be in service”, he said

The police also noted that the Senator refused to answer to the allegation levelled against the IGP.

Moshhod said: “The Public will note that Issa Hamma Misau deliberately refused to prove the allegations he previously levelled against the Inspector General of Police on the floor of the Senate for which he was invited by the Senate Ad-hoc Committee but instead brought up other falsehoods to distract the Committee and the members of the Public.

Moshood added that the IGP will not be distracted or deterred by mischievous people from carrying out his statutory responsibilities for the benefit of the entire Police Personnel and all Nigerians.

BIAFRA: At Last, FG Names Whose Custody WANTED Nnamdi Kanu Is

Culled From Punch Newspaper

Kanu
The Federal Government has replied to Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe’s application seeking to withdraw as one of the sureties for the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, describing the application as belated.

The government, in its counter-affidavit and written address filed before the Federal High Court in Abuja to oppose Abaribe’s request, told Abaribe that Kanu was in his custody and he had to produce him for the continuation of his trial.

It stated in its counter-affidavit that Abaribe was aware that Kanu “has long violated the bail conditions handed down by this honourable court” on April 24, 2017 before September 11 when he claimed to have lost contact with the defendant.


The counter-affidavit read in part, “That it was at this point at violating the conditions at the bail that the senator surety ought to surrender the 1st defendant and or bring up this application; “That this application is belated and ill-timed;

“The applicant failed to apply to the court timeously, stating on oath that the defendant bound by recognizance to appear before this court had violated the bail condition given by this court.”

The prosecuting counsel, Mr. Shuaibu Labaran, argued in the written address that Abaribe “failed woefully” by allegedly aiding and abetting Kanu to flout his bail conditions.

The written address stated, “My lord, the surety has failed woefully to abide by the terms of the contract he entered into with this court and therefore cannot claim frustration.

“My lord, we urge that the court hold, that surety having refused to do what he ought to have done pursuant to section 174 of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act 2015 aided and abetted the 1st defendant in the flouting of the bail conditions of this court and should forfeit the bond he entered into.”

Denying that Kanu was not in the custody of the Nigerian Army, the Federal Government stated in its counter-affidavit that the defendant remained in Abaribe’s custody.

“That the military activities in Abia State tagged ‘Operation Python Dance II’ was a routine exercise in its second year carried out by the military at the end of every year.

“That the 1st defendant is not in the custody of the Nigerian military or any other security agency in that regard.

“That the 1st defendant is in custody of the applicant (Abaribe).”

Kanu was absent from court when his case came up on October 17, 2017, but his co-defendants with whom he was being prosecuted on charges of treasonable felony were produced in court by prison officials.

Abaribe’s lawyer, Ogechi Ogunna, informed the court of the motion by his client seeking to withdraw as Kanu’s surety but the judge said she would not hear it until the senator first produced the missing defendant.

She gave Abaribe and the two other sureties up till November 20 to produce the defendant in court.

Why We MUST Unleash Crocodile Smile II In Yoruba Lands - Defense Headquarters ...List Badoo, Others


Brig. Gen. Sani Usman
The dreaded Badoo cult group tormenting the Ikorodu Area of Lagos State and some part in Ogun State has been listed among other cult gangs why the Nigerian Military has said it would unleash the infamous Operation Crocodile Smile II.

The Army through it Director and Public Relation, Brig. Gen. Sani Usman on Wednesday made the disclosure in an interview with Punch Newspaper

The Army insisted that the military operations – Egwu Eke II and Crocodile Smile II – like the earlier operations, were not targeted at “any particular ethnic group or group of individuals.”


Usman said, “Let me tell you. I made reference to Operation Crocodile Smile, because there is so much mischief and misinformation in respect of Exercise Egwu Eke II. What we are saying is that the exercise is not targeted at any particular ethnic group or a group of persons.

“The army needs to train because in the event of being called upon by the civic authorities, we will know what to do. So, we are looking at large-scale security challenges and we train on those aspects. Last year, we had all these exercises based on the challenges at that time.

“But this year, there are issues associated with criminalities such as Badoo and other cult-related activities. The problems associated with the North-West are different from the South-South or the South-East or a combination of both. The whole idea is that these exercises are routine and some people only blow things out of proportion. But we mean well and we just want to train our troops to be more professional.”

'Stubborn' Magu Under Serious Pressure As Aged Mother Gets Multiple Death Threats ...You'll Be Shocked Why


Ibrahim Magu
The aged mother of the Acting Chairman of the EFCC Mr. Ibrahim Magu has been getting multiple death over her son's uncompromised stance to fight some high-profile suspects and Politically-Exposed Persons, new report according to The Nation Newspaper suggests.

To this end, security has been strengthened around Magu and his immediate family, including his aged mother.

It was learned that some strangers have been prowling Magu’s residence in Maiduguri. Some policemen have been deployed in Magu’s  uncompleted bungalow in Karshi, Abuja.


According to a source who pleaded not to be named, the last seven months had been tough for Magu because of his refusal to bow to pressure from some high-profile suspects and Politically-Exposed Persons.

The source said the pressure had grave implications on Magu’s and his relations’ safety.

The development has led to the review of Magu’s and most of the key investigators’ security.

The source said: “In the past few weeks, security had been beefed up for Magu and his immediate family because of threats from some forces.

“His office was also recently reorganized in line with the new security model. It is so bad that Magu now keeps his itinerary to himself until the last minute.

“Hitherto, there was no protection for Magu’s aged mother in Maiduguri. But of recent, some suspected elements have been prowling the family house in the Borno State capital and issuing threats to the woman.

“Due to old age, the mother of the Acting chairman could not recognize these elements. To avoid any harm, security has now been provided in and around the house.

“And following the recent raid of Magu’s uncompleted building in Karshi, Abuja  by some suspected agents, the police have deployed in more men for sentry duties.”

The source added: “It has really been tough because the pressure is too much on Magu, EFCC investigators and their families.

“With the invasion of the strategic office of the EFCC in Zone 7, it is evident that we need to strengthen security for all our operatives.”

Dangote Denies Involvement In Alleged N100m Bribe To Kill Emir Sanusi Fraud Probe Scandal

By NAN

Emir Sanusi and Dangote
Africa’s billionaire, Aliko Dangote has told the committee set up by the Kano State House of Assembly to probe a bribery allegation against him and its former speaker, Alhaji Kabiru Rurum, not to waste their time on lies.



Speaking Monday night, Dangote spokesman, Tony Chiejina told NAN that the allegation was ‘outright falsehood’ has been ’embarrassing’ to the businessmen.

“Aliko Dangote does not even know the embattled speaker, Hon. Kabiru Alhassan Rurum, let alone being his friend as alleged by the report”, Chiejina said.

NAN recalls that Rurum had while responding to the allegation in an interview on 20 June, described the story as false, designed to tarnish his image and bring the whole Assembly into disrepute.

He gave the news site one week within which to retract the report and apologise to the State Assembly or face legal action.

According to him, the report was also targeted at creating tension and chaos among the lawmakers and ridicule the personality of Dangote.

2019: APC finally speaks on Saraki’s campaign posters

“The story was just a fabrication, a tissue of lies and unjustifiable, because there was never a time I met with Dangote to discuss such issue, not to talk of him offering bribe to us.”

He said that the intervention of Acting President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, Northern Governors and other notable Nigerians to stop the probe was channeled through the state governor and not the assembly.

“It is a tradition that when such things happened, the Governor gets in touch with us as one of the three arms of government.

“Therefore, the governor forwarded his request letter appealing for the suspension of the investigation on behalf of all the concerned citizens.”

The Kano Assembly meanwhile has asked a five-man committee to investigate the allegations against Rurum.

The new Speaker, Alhaji Abdullahi Atta, proposed the investigation at the plenary. It was unanimously accepted by the house.

Atta gave the committee, which has as the chairman, the Deputy Chief Whip of the Assembly, Alhaji Muhammad Butu-Butu, a member representing Rimin Gado/Tofa Constituency, three months to submit its report.
