Fayose Richer Than Ekiti - EFCC Alleges, Asks The Gov To Go To Court Over Blocked Account

The Economic and Financial crime Commission has reportedly revealed that the Ekiti State Governor, Dr. Peter Ayodele, whose Zenith Bank Account was frozen is richer than the State, report according to Current News Now say.

According to a source of the anti-corruption Agency, the huge amount of money found in the governor's private account and that of his cronies cannot in anyway be compared with that of the state. 

The EFCC investigations into the finances of Ekiti State vis - a - viz that of the state governor, Peter Ayodele Fayose has revealed that the governor by all standards is far richer than the state. 

"The EFCC does not just act without carrying out thorough investigations, we acted based on the act establishing the Agency. If anyone felt we've acted against him wrongly, let the person approach the court."

"It is a fact that according to our constitution, certain category of public officials are immuned from prosecution while in office and they include the President, Vice President, Governors and deputy Governors.

Thus, we all recognize and accept the fact that these category of persons have immunity, but to transfer this immunity to their properties or holdings or bank accounts is what we have been unable to identify where it is stated in the constitution."

"So, if Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti state is crying wolf over the freezing of his personal bank account and not that of the state as a result of investigation of irregularities and suspicious transactions by the EFCC as empowered by the Act establishing the commission, may one use this medium to advise him to quickly approach the courts and seek the interpretation of the law on the difference between immunity for the governor and his personal bank account which has been frozen by the anti graft body."

"Governor Ayodele Fayose cannot in anyway be richer than his state. So let him go to court we shall meet him there."

Why We Frozen Gov. Fayose's Account - EFCC Confirms

The truism of Governor of Ekiti State's claim that his Zenith Bank account was yesterday frozen by the anti-graft agency, the Economic and Financial Crime Commission, EFCC has been confirmed as the commission had given the reason why it did so, News Punch has learnt reliably.

News Punch had yesterday reported that the talkative Ekiti State governor's account was frozen by the anti-graft agency.

The EFCC, in response at Governor Ayo Fayose of Ekiti State's claim that he cannot be investigated because of immunity currently covering him as a sitting governor, said the account was frozen over suspicion flow of illegal fund to the said account.

Fayose had on Monday claimed that his account was frozen by the anti-graft agency for a reason he could not explain.

Reacting, however, the commission said that the immunity being enjoyed by any governor did not prevent the agency from investigating suspicious movements of money into his accounts.

As reported by Vanguard News, the Spokesman for the EFCC, Wilson Uwujaren said that the anti-graft agency had the right to investigate any governor whose account was being used to move funds.

“Immunity does not prevent EFCC from investigating suspicious accounts of those enjoying immunity and Fayose cannot be an exception,” the commission said.

News Punch further learnt that the EFCC actually frozen the governor's account over involvement in the ongoing investigation of $2.1 billion arms deal scam involving former Nationa Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki.

Governor Fayose Fayose in 2014, allegedly received N1 . 2 billion from the former National Security Adviser , Colonel Sambo Dasuki which was meant to be used to compromise security personnel deployed to Ekiti State during governorship election there .

The EFCC has traced N500 million of that money into Governor Fayose 's Zenith Bank Account .

Reacting to Gov. Fayose's claim of still being covered by the immunity in the constitution, a human rights activist and constitutional lawyer, Barrister Okoi Obono-Obla said to News Punch; "the fact that a Governor is conferred with immunity by Section 308 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria ,1999 (as amended ) does not preclude the Police or Law Enforcement Agency such as the EFCC from investigating such Governor when he suspected of having committed a criminal suspect."

"However, such a Governor cannot be prosecuted till his immunity ends after the expiration of his tenure"

"Therefore, the EFCC is right to investigate Governor Fayose for money laundering" the lawyer said

BREAKING: Gov. Fayose's Account Frozen By EFCC

The Ekiti State Governor, Ayo Fayose, has alleged that the Economic and Financial Crimes commission has frozen his personal account with Zenith Bank Plc.

Fayose said this on Monday in Ado-Ekiti, the Ekiti State capital.

This followed his inability to operate the account when he visited the bank personally.

He told newsmen that officials of the Bank told him that an embargo has been placed on his account.

Fayose had been having a running battle with the EFCC over the funding of his governorship campaign in 2014.

There had been accusations that the campaign was funded with funds from the Office of the National Security Adviser.

Fayose had denied this, saying his campaign funds were generated from the ordinary people who wanted him in power.

When contacted, the spokesman of the EFCC, Wilson Uwujaren, said he was not aware of the accusation levelled against the Commission by Fayose.

BREAKING: Sheriff Incurs EFCC Invitation Over Diezani's Bribe For Election Spree

As if the recent unceremonious ouster from the opposition Peoples Democratic Party national Chairmanship, not enough, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has invited a factional Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Senator Ali Modu Sheriff, for questioning on the 2015 presidential campaign funds of the PDP an unconfirmed report by TheEagleOnline report suggests

Sheriff was believed to have benefitted from the funds released by the Presidency for the reelection bid of the then President Goodluck Jonathan.

News Punch has learnt from source that the EFCC, which has been inviting and retrieving huge sums voted for the 2015 presidential election from various political actors, asked Sheriff to report to its Borno State Office in Maiduguri. The invitation, it was gathered, was extended to Sheriff on Tuesday.

Our source revealed however that, there has been no official confirmation of the development by the EFCC.

But a top notch of the commission told our source that Sheriff is being expected at the Maiduguri office of the Commission.

This, the source explained, was because the funds so collected was picked up in Borno State.

Most of the funds traced to political gladiators involved in the presidential election had been picked up at the Fidelity Bank Plc branches in state capitals across the country.

The money has been traced to a former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Deziani Alison-Madueke, who deposited $115 million in Fidelity Bank Plc, through its now sacked Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer, Nnamdi Okonkwo.

Th money was then changed into Naira for distribution to top chieftains of the PDP and the Independent National Electoral Commission.

The former Borno governor currently battling his party to remain as chairman following his sack recently.

Saraki's CCT Trial Chairman, Umar In Fresh Trouble As Aide EXPOSES He Demanded N10m Bribe

The legal hurdle to exonerates the Code of Conduct tribunal Chairman, Danladi Umar handling the trial of the Senate President Bukola saraki from the alleged N10 million bribe may have taken fresh turn as his former Personal Assistant, Mr. Ali Gambo Abdullahi has revealed how his former boss actually demanded the said bribe in his office, ThisDay Newspaper has reported.

Ali Gambo Abdullahi in a cross-examination told an Abuja High Court was on Tuesday that the Chairman of the Code of Conduct Tribunal (CCT), Mr. Danladi Yakubu Umar, met several times in his chamber with a retired Deputy Comptroller-General of the Nigerian Customs Service (NCS), Mr. Rasheed Taiwo Owolabi, who was standing trial before him on false assets declaration charges.

Abdullahi, told the court while giving evidence in a trial within a trial on the disputed statement he made to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in respect of a N10 million bribe allegedly demanded by the CCT chairman from the accused person in order to strike out the charges against him.

The witness, who was cross-examined by the EFCC counsel, Mr. Andrew Akoja, told Justice Chizobia Oji that it was at the end of the last meeting the accused person had with the CCT chairman that the sum of N1.8 million was paid into his (Abdullahi’s) account by the ex-customs official.

However, contrary to the statement he made on August 12, 2013 that the N1.8 million was part payment of the N10 million bribe meant for the CCT chairman, the witness said the money was deposited into his Zenith Bank account by the accused person to offset the medical bill of his ailing father.

The witness further told the court that he never met with the former deputy comptroller-general of Customs until he started visiting the CCT chairman in the course of his trial and that the money was paid to him immediately after the last visit to his boss.

Confronted with the statement where he implicated the CCT chairman on the N10 million bribery saga, Abdullahi said that the statement he first made on the issue was done under duress and based on the inducement promised him by operatives of the EFCC who investigated the petition of the ex-Customs man in the matter.

Further cross-examined by the EFCC counsel, the witness, who read out some portions of the statement, identified his signature, admitted that he signed the statement and that he also signed an attestation confirming that his statement was made freely and voluntarily by him.

Earlier in his evidence-in-chief, Abdullahi had told the court that he was a protocol officer at the CCT when he was employed in 2009 and that he later became the personal assistant to the chairman.

He told the court that he got to know the former Customs officer during his numerous visits to his boss, revealing that during the last visit, the said Taiwo met him with sympathisers on the plight of his father and it was as a result of the plight of his father that prompted the payment of N1.8 million to cater for his father.

The witness said on August 12, 2013 he was invited to EFCC’s office in Abuja where he was confronted with a petition from the said Owolabi on the alleged N10 million bribe and that he made a statement on the same day and was allowed to go home on administrative bail but with a condition: to continue visiting EFCC twice a week pending the completion of the investigation.

He also informed the court that the following day, two directors from CCT followed him to the EFCC to perfect his bail condition and that in the course of his several visits to the commission, he made several statements in addition to that of Auguat 12, 2013.

The witness said that the additional statements where he exonerated the CCT chairman were the true reflection of what transpired on the N10 million bribe and not his first statement of August 12, where he implicated the CCT boss as the beneficiary of the N1.8 million bribe.

He denied that his other statements where he exonerated the CCT boss were after-thoughts, adding that he was made to implicate his boss under duress and promises of inducement.

The trial judge, Justice Chizobia Oji, adjourned the adoption of addresses in the matter to October 20, 2016.

Abdullahi is facing trial for allegedly giving false information, but his denial of his first statement on the bribery allegation prompted the trial within a trial by Justice Oji to determine his claim of duress before admitting the statement in evidence as exhibit.

EFCC Freezes GEJ Ministers', PDP Chiefs' Accounts; 6 Govs Fingered Too In N23b Campaign Fund Fraud

New Telegraph - In its determination to recover all public funds allegedly used to prosecute the 2015 presidential election, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has frozen the bank accounts of some stalwarts of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). International passports of some of the PDP leaders under investigation have also been seized by the anti-graft agency.

Those whose accounts have been frozen include those of some ex-governors, former ministers and PDP leaders who were said to have shared or benefitted from the N23 billion campaign funds, distributed to states, to enhance the electoral fortunes of the party.

Each of the 36 states benefitted between N450 million and N950,000 million from the campaign funds used to prosecute the 2015 general elections. New Telegraph further gathered that the anti-graft agency is in a dilemma over the alleged involvement of about six serving governors in the campaign funds. It was learnt that the sitting governors got involved either as state chief executives then, or as gubernatorial candidates of the PDP.

The commission is, however, hamstrung as it concerns the sitting governors, owing to their constitutional immunity, which does not allow for interrogation or prosecution, as long as they remained governors.

In fact, New Telegraph was reliably informed by a highly placed source, who pleaded anonymity, that all the bank accounts of a very prominent and influential leader of the party, have been frozen ostensibly because the EFCC believes so much of the disputed cash may have been channeled through his accounts.

New Telegraph was reliably informed that the account of a former Kano State Governor and Minister of Education, Malam Ibrahim Shekarau, domiciled with one of the old generation banks, has been frozen. This development may have obstructed the payment of the ex-governor’s four-year entitlements, which were to be paid into the said account by the Umar Ganduje-led administration.

According to sources, the action of the commission is already having adverse effects on those affected, as they are unable to access funds through those accounts that have since been blocked, pending conclusion of investigations.

The action of the EFCC, which is not final in itself, is to pre-empt possible closures of such accounts, which could hamper the course of ongoing investigations. Another source also hinted that more arrests and interrogations would be made in the coming days, as there are still some states that have not been visited.

This is more so that the funds under investigation were said to have been distributed to the 36 states of the federation.“I can confirm to you that the EFCC has blocked the bank accounts of our (PDP) leaders being investigated over what they said was money used for election.

“It came to some of them as a huge shock, because they got to know about it when they made efforts to either withdraw money, or conduct other transactions from their accounts. “Honestly, it was so bad that an ex-governor of a state in the North- West, who was a minister in the last dispensation, could not have his pension paid into his only existing bank account, because of the freezing.

“He may not even travel to Mecca for this year’s lesser Hajj, because his passport has also been confiscated,” he said. On the temporary freezing of all the accounts of a leader from the South, another source said: “It is so bad that one of our respected leaders has had all his existing accounts frozen.

“We are waiting to see how this whole investigation pans out, but I know that our leaders under probe, are really in some dire straits.” Meanwhile, a former governor of Enugu State, Mr. Sullivan Chime, is expected back at the Commission’s zonal office today, where investigation into his alleged involvement in the sharing of N450 million sent to the state, will continue.

Chime, who reported first on Wednesday, June 8, was said to have made a statement, where he denied any personal involvement with the disbursement of the said amount as was claimed by Mrs. Rita Chinelo Mba, secretary to the campaign office and his former Commissioner for Special Duties and Intergovernment Affairs.

The commission has, so far, quizzed the following ex-PDP governors: Chief Achike Udenwa (Imo State), Senator Liyel Imoke (Cross River State), as well as Alhaji Mamuda Aliyu Shinkafi (Zamfara State). Apart from the former state chief executives, operatives had interrogated a former Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Aminu Wali (Kano); a former Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Dr. Nurudeen Muhammad (Jigawa State); Ntufam John Okon (Cross River State PDP Chairman), and retired Air Commodore Idongesit Nkanga (Akwa Ibom).

Also quizzed were a former Minister of State for Finance, Ambassador Bashir Yuguda (Zamfara); an ex-Minister of Mines and Steel, Arch. Musa Muhammad Sada (Katsina), as well as a former Minister of State for Agriculture, Asabe Asmau Ahmed (Niger). A former Deputy Governor of Edo State, Chief Lucky Imasuen, as well as former Secretary to the Edo State Government (SSG), Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, had been interrogated in respect of the controversial cash.

Shocker: EFCC Seizes N.5b House Of Adamawa Ex-Acting Gov Who 'Stole' N1.9b in 6mnt Admin

An acting governor of Adamawa State, Umaru Fintiri's terrace house located in no 7, Gana Street, Maitama, Abuja has been under lock and key (SEIZED) by Nigeria anti-graft agency, the Economic and Financial Crime Commission, EFCC over an allegation of N1.9 billion theft in six months of his administration in the state, Punch Newspaper reports

The house had painted at its entrance the inscription, ‘EFCC, under investigation’.

Following a petition by former members of his cabinet that he embezzled N1.9bn during the three months he acted as governor, Fintiri was arrested by the anti-graft agency 10 days ago.

Fintirin, who was the Speaker of the Adamawa State House of Assembly, became acting governor from July 15, 2014 to October 8, 2014 after the impeachment of the substantive governor, Murtala Nyako, and his deputy, Bala Ngilari, in 2014.

The exacting governor allegedly diverted the fund that was meant for the construction of the Faculty of Law at the Adamawa State University, Punch Newspaper says

He said, “Before his impeachment,Murhitala Nyako left a balance of N1,957,045,82 in the state government’s project account with the Yola branch of Zenith Bank, with account number 1011325467. Out of the money, N497m was meant for the construction of a law faculty at the university, which was to be sited at the former Teachers’ College, Yola.

“However, when Fintiri took over as acting governor, he transferred the proposed faculty from Yola to the Mubi campus of the ADSU and later laid the foundation; but after that, the project never took off.

“Investigations revealed that on Fintiri’s orders, part of the N1.9bn was released to the Ministry of Works and a contract was awarded to a construction company, Mayim Construction Limited, for the construction of roads in Mararaba Garta and Kamale in the Michika Local Government Area of the state. The company, we believe, is owned by Fintiri, which is illegal.

“The roads in question have not been constructed.”

The source added that Fintiri also purchased Highland Tea, a tea manufacturing company located on the Mambilla Plateau and jointly owned by Adamawa and Taraba states. The tea company owed N600m to the Bank of Agriculture, which Fintiri paid promptly and became its sole owner.

The source alleged that Fintiri, through his company, bought the assets of a firm, S M Nguroje Nigeria Limited, through the Bank of Agriculture for N650m

The property is a tea plantation and processing plant located in Taraba State.

“We believe that part of the N1.9bn was used in buying the tea plantation,” the source added.

The EFCC is also investigating a loan of N5bn taken by Fintiri as acting governor. It was alleged that the suspect took the loan without following due process.

Fintiri, the source said, would soon be charged to court.

However, a spokesman for Fintiri, who did not want his name in print, said the allegations were baseless, adding that all the contracts were awarded in accordance with the laws of the state.

He said Fintiri’s house was not seized but was only put under investigation.

He said, “The bids for the contracts were transparent and the ministries concerned duly advertised the projects for pre-qualification tender, which was not opened before Fintiri’s tenure ended.

“I think what you as a journalist should do is to find out why a suspect will be held for over 48 hours without being charged to court.”

Meanwhile, the Presidency on Saturday said efforts by the Muhammadu Buhari administration to recover funds stolen by former government officials as well as other individuals were a continuous exercise.

The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, said this in an interview with one of our correspondents.

Adesina was reacting to the criticism that trailed the release of the amounts so far recovered from suspected looters by the Federal Government.

The government said it had recovered a total of N115.7bn in cash, while assets worth over N1.9tn had been frozen in the last one year.

In a statement by the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the government said the recoveries were made between May 29, 2015 and May 25, 2016.

The government gave the breakdown of the loot as N78,325,354,631.82; $185,119,584.61; £3,508,355.46 and €11,250.

A conversion of the funds using the official exchange rate of the Central Bank of Nigeria showed that the recovered loot added up to N115,792,760,499.

But some individuals and groups alleged that the amount declared as having been recovered was not the actual amount returned by the suspected looters.

Adesina, however, said this was why the President made it clear that there would be regular updates on the recovered funds by the minister.

“Recovery of loot and declaration of same is a continuing process. The President made it clear in his May 29 broadcast that the Minister of Information would give continuous updates,” the presidential spokesman said.
