Edo Guber 2016: Pastor Ize-Iyamu, PDP Candidate In N23b Stolen Election Bribe Scandal Mess - EFCC Opens Up

Edo Guber 2016: Pastor Ize-Iyamu, PDP Candidate In N23b Stolen Election Bribe Scandal Mess - EFCC Opens Up

Ize-Iyamu
Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in Edo State is still under investigation over his alleged role in the disbursement of N23bn campaign funds, which emanated from a former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC has revealed.


According to the agency, the N23bn was alleged to have been part of stolen crude oil funds and kickbacks from contractors.

Part of the money was allegedly used in bribing officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission during the 2015 general elections.

Earlier, Ize-Iyamu had told journalists that as the campaign director for the Goodluck Jonathan Campaign Organisation in Edo State during the 2015 presidential election, he handled N700m for the party.

The PDP candidate was quizzed by the EFCC in May 2016, whn he was asked to return some money to the commission but was not detained, thereby fuelling speculations that he had been cleared by the anti-graft agency.

The EFCC spokesman, Mr. Wilson Uwujaren, however, told our correspondent on Monday that the PDP candidate was still under investigation.

“I can confirm to you that he (Ize-Iyamu) is still under investigation,” Wilson said.

Ize-Iyamu had told reporters that he indeed handled N700m for the PDP during the last presidential election but added that the party still owed him some money.

He had said, “I told them (EFCC) who got what: that we needed money for transportation; mobilisation of our people; some of them that had to leave Benin to their polling units in the rural areas, and that the state chairman of the party worked out a realistic budget.

“And that by the time we looked at what they brought and what we had in mind, it became clear that the N700m would not be enough. Our leader volunteered to make up the difference, which he brought from his house.”

The EFCC has grilled about 16 former governors and ministers over the alleged N23bn Diezani scam.

Some of them included the immediate past Governor of Kebbi State, Saidu Dakin Garin; former Governor Sullivan Chime of Enugu State; former Governor Ibrahim Shekarau of Kano State; former Governor Ali Modu Sheriff of Borno State; former Governor James Ngilari of Adamawa State; a former Governor of Zamfara State, Mamuda Shinkafi; a former Governor of Cross River State, Senator Liyel Imoke; and a former Minister of State for Finance, Ambassador Bashir Yuguda.

During the election, each state was said to have received at least N450m from the fund, which was handled by ministers or governors who were members of the PDP.

Some states, however, received more than N450m.

Diepreye Alamieyeseigha N2.8 Billion Chelsea

Taken Over By Weeds In Abuja
Almost seven years after the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) handed over the N2.8billion Chelsea Hotel to the government of Bayelsa State, the hitherto money-spinning edifice is rotting away in Abuja.

The hotel was seized from the state’s first civilian governor, the late Diepreye Alamieyeseigha.

A Federal High Court, Lagos in 2007 ordered the forfeiture of the hotel by Alamieyeseigha after the ex-governor was sentenced for corruption.

Besides the hotel, the EFCC sold other Alamieyeseigha assets in Nigeria and realised N3, 128, 230, 294.83billion; $441,000; E7, 000 and £2,000.

The money was remitted to the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), in accordance with the law, for onward delivery to the state government as ordered by the court.

Former EFCC Chairman Mrs. Farida Waziri on September 7, 2009 handed over the hotel to ex-Governor Timipreye Sylva in Abuja. The thinking was that it would be a source of revenue for the state.

Seven years after the asset was returned to the state government, the hotel has become a haven for miscreants, men of the underworld, rodents and reptiles.

Shady activities are being perpetrated at the abandoned hotel, which poses danger to some shopping malls and banks in the Central Business District of Abuja.

Some of the miscreants have stripped the hotel of vital materials, which has no security.

An EFCC source, who spoke in confidence, said: “As at the time we handed over the hotel, in 2009, the asset was worth N2.8billion. We returned the hotel to Bayelsa State with another asset at No. 2 Marscibit Street, Off Aminu Kano Crescent Wuse II Abuja which was valued at N210million.

“We took a step further by instructing Diya Fatimilehin and Co., former managers of the hotel to provide the state with detailed inventory of assets of the hotel.”

“It is unfortunate that nothing has been done in the last seven years. The land where the hotel is sited attracts either up to N800million to N1billion in Abuja. Yet the asset is allowed to lie fallow

“To the source, the fate of the once throwing hotel is a typical case of how the anti-graft war is being “frustrated and rendered meaningless”

“A former Chairman of EFCC, Mr. Nuhu Ribadu worked day and night to bring Alamieyeseigha to justice but the efforts have come to naught,” he said.

Asked if the EFCC can query the state government on why the hotel has been abandoned, the source said: “Well, there is not much we can do because we have done our best.

“The state’s funds were looted and used to buy the hotel; we traced the loot and recovered the assets. It is left to the state to live up to its pledge to make judicious use of the asset or sell it.

“We have been expecting a status report from Bayelsa State on how it has spent the recovered funds and the utilisation of the returned assets.”

Upon the receipt of the hotel in 2009, Sylva said: “The Bayelsa State Government will not be able to manage the assets by itself. The fund that the state government will receive will also go to building what is called the Transparency Plaza, in the middle of the Yenagoa Central Business District, so that this plaza will be a monument that will be a constant reminder of today.

”As soon as the fund is accessed, we will like to ask you to come to Bayelsa State to lay the foundation of this plaza.

“We will welcome your close monitoring of the expenditure of this fund, after all without the instrumentality of EFCC, we would not have accessed this fund, so it is only good that you know exactly what we are doing. We are running an open government; our budget is on the website, anybody can access it. We are fully committed to transparency and to partner fully with EFCC.”

As at press time, rodents, reptiles, rodents, miscreants, drug addicts have taken over the hotel.

It was gathered that many posh cars and Sport Utility Vehicles (SUVs) massed up in darkness at the hotel at night for what a source described as “nocturnal deals”.

A concerned bank executive said: “The activities of some miscreants at the old hotel premises constitute security threats to commercial entities in CBD, including choice malls and banks nearby.

“Security agencies and the police should have more than a passing interest in some activities at the old hotel.”

Budget Padding: EFCC Ignites SECRET Fire On Dogara, Begins Probe Of The Speaker In An Unusual Manner

Budget Padding: EFCC Ignites SECRET Fire On Dogara, Begins Probe Of The Speaker In An Unusual Manner

Budget Padding: EFCC Ignites SECRET Fire On Dogara, Begins Probe Of The Speaker In An Unusual Manner
"The law is no respecter of anybody." 

Such is the case of the Speaker of the House of The Representative, Yakubu Dogara who is currently going through unusual discreet investigation by the Nigeria fearless ant-graft agency, the Economic and Financial Crime Commission over the allegation of budget padding labelled against him by his estranged friend and former Appropriation Chairman, Abdulmumin Jibrin.

According to TheCable, an online news media, the EFCC has invited finance directors of federal ministries and agencies to come with the details of their draft budgets and what was finally approved by the national assembly.as part of the investigation, 

The directors are appearing before the agency on different days of the week, TheCable confirmed

In July, Abdulmumin Jibrin, former chairman of the house committee on appropriation, was removed and he began to make a series of allegations against Dogara and other officers of the house.

He alleged that Dogara and his deputy, Yusuf Lasun; Alhassan Doguwa, and chief whip; Leo Ogor, minority leader, in cahoots with some members of the house made illegal insertions of about N450bn into the 2016 budget.

Jibrin also accused Dogara of diverting government projects to himself.

He called on anti-corruption agencies to investigate and to prosecute the speaker, describing him as a “shameless fraud”.

On August 1, he submitted petitions moored to his allegations against Dogara to the EFCC, the Independent Corrupt Practices and other related Offences Commission (ICPC) and the Department of State Services (DSS).

But in response, the house leadership described the allegations as wild, baseless and unfounded.

In a statement on August 18, the leadership of the lower chamber explained its reason from removing Jibrin as the chairman of the appropriation committee.

“The decision to relieve the erstwhile appropriation chairman of his position was a collective decision of the leadership in response to unrelenting pressures from the overwhelming majority of honourable members who were irked by the former chairman’s gross abuse of the budget process,” it said.

“Both actions were taken in the best interest of the institution and the nation for which we take full responsibility.

“In the meantime however, the leadership of the house of representatives wishes to reaffirm that it took collective action, in conjunction with the senate and a team from the executive, to rescue the 2016 budget when it became obvious that the former appropriation chairman had placed both the document and the process in jeopardy resulting in a spate of agitation from ministries, departments and agencies.”

“Truth may be slow but it usually always wins the race in the end. We have no doubts,”

Jibrin has vowed to continue his cause until Dogara goes to jail.

On Wednesday, he met with the presidential advisory committee on anti-corruption for more than three hours.

More Billions, 33 Assorted Properties RECOVERED From Jonathan's 'Army Thieves' (Chiefs) As They Apply For Plea Bargain

More Billions, 33 Assorted Properties RECOVERED From Jonathan's 'Army Thieves' (Chiefs) As They Apply For Plea Bargain

More Billions, 33 Assorted Properties RECOVERED From Jonathan's 'Army Thieves' (Chiefs) As They Apply For Plea Bargain
New Telegraph - The chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Mr. Ibrahim Magu, has revealed that over N2 billion and 33 properties were recovered from three air force personnel.

The seizures were made from the immediate past Chief of Air Staff, Air Marshal Adesola Amosu; former Director of Finance and Budget, Nigeria Air Force (NAF), Air Commodore Olugbenga Gbadebo (rtd) and former Chief of Accounts and Budgeting in NAF, Air Vice Marshal Jacob Adigun (rtd). The trio is presently facing a 26-count charge of fraud and money laundering.

New Telegraph learnt that the monies were recovered from various bank accounts linked to Amosu, Adigun and Gbadebo.

It was learnt that the properties include luxury apartments, hotels, shopping malls, mansions   parcels of land and ultramodern diagnostic centre located in highbrow areas of Lagos and Abuja.

Magu, who made the disclosure yesterday at the EFCC Ikoyi, Lagos office, during a tour of the commission’s detention facilities, added that it was shocking that just three men could steal such a stag  gering amount of money from public treasury.

Magu, who was represented by the Deputy Director of Operations, Mr. Iliyasu Kwarbai, said one of the properties is valued at N1.8 billion.

According to him, the total value of the 33 properties is over N12 billion. Magu noted that the three air force personnel are presently asking for plea bargaining. He said: “Plea bargaining lessens time wastage and money spent on prosecution. Usually, it’s the accused person that applies to the EFCC for plea bargain.

In the arms deal investigation, we recovered over N2 billion cash from three air force personnel. We also recovered over 33 properties from them. One of the properties is valued at N1.8 billion. “They have applied for plea bargaining. It means they have pleaded guilty.

The punishment will be mitigated and we’ll still recover some of Nigeria’s stolen assets and they’ll still serve punishment.” On the tour of the detention facilities, Magu said that the commission wanted to show members of the public how transparent the EFCC was. He said that suspects were never unduly detained, beaten or harassed.

According to him    presently, the Lagos Zone has just 22 suspects, including one female in detention.

His words: “We feed our detainees three times a day. We don’t beat or abuse suspects. We don’t box them. We don’t extort. We’re not armchair investigators. We go to banks and get our facts. Some of them insult us, but we don’t reply. We’re a group of professionals. All we want are answers to some questions. We confront them with facts and figures.” He disclosed that most suspects involved in high profile cases, easily fall sick once they are detained.

He said: “The moment we take them to our detention facility at Okotie Eboh in Lagos, they fall sick. They fall sick because they have been living in luxury with our collective stolen wealth.” Magu, who also conducted journalists and civil rights organisations round the EFCC clinic, said the facility was for both suspects and staff.

He said that once any suspect complains of ill health, the person would be taken to the clinic, where they have standby doctors.

If the EFCC doctors couldn’t handle the illness, the suspect is immediately referred to another hospital. The EFCC usually picks the bill for such medical expenses.

EFCC Quizzes Lagos PDP Chieftain, Ogunlewe Over N250 Varsity Fund Misappropriated; Why I Was Invited, Ogunlewe Opens Up

EFCC Quizzes Lagos PDP Chieftain, Ogunlewe Over N250 Varsity Fund Misappropriated; Why I Was Invited, Ogunlewe Opens Up

Ogunlewe
A former minister of works and chieftain of Lagos State Peoples Democratic Party, Chief deseye Ogunlewe was yesterday quizzzed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission over a mismanage N250 million fund belonging to University of Agriculture, Abeokuta Ogun State,.

The antigraft commission made this public in a facebook post 

Ogunlewe is the current Pro-Chancellor of the university. He was invited to the Ibadan office of the EFCC sequel to a petition written to the EFCC by a group known as Concerned Stakeholders of FUNAAB in which Ogunlewe and the Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Olusola Oyewole, and other members of the university’s governing council were accused of mismanaging N250m.

According to sources at the university, Oyewole and Ogunlewe allegedly spent N250m for allowances in four years thereby plunging the university into financial crisis, Punch Newspaper published

The anti-graft agency said in a Facebook post that Ogunlewe was still being interrogated as of 4pm on Wednesday.

It said, “Senator Adeseye Ogunlewe, the Pro-Chancellor, FUNAAB, is being quizzed at the Iyaganku office of the EFCC, Ibadan today, August 31, 2016 in respect of an alleged case of abuse of office and misappropriation of funds reported against the university Pro-Chancellor, Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Olusola Oyewole, management and some members of the governing council.

“According to a petition submitted to the EFCC by the Concerned Stakeholders of the Federal University of Agriculture, it was alleged that the pro-chancellor and the vice-chancellor engaged in an ‘unbridled corruption and betrayal of public trust.’ Ogunlewe is still being interrogated by the EFCC operatives of the commission.”

The EFCC had on August 17 quizzed Oyewole and the university Bursar, Mr. Moses Ilesanmi, for their alleged roles in the case.

When contacted on the telephone by Punch Newspaper, Ogunlewe confirmed that he was quizzed by the commission but added that he was only asked to offer explanations and he left the anti-graft agency at 10am.

The former minister said the petition was initiated by the bursar who was aggrieved because the governing council refused to extend his tenure.

Ogunlewe added that the council had no access to N250m and therefore dismissed the allegation.

He said, “All our allowances are prescribed under the rules and regulations. The governing council sits only four times a year and our allowances cannot be altered. So, the allegations are false. In government you must sign whenever you receive money. So, how could we have signed off on that amount of money?

“The council is not involved in the day-to-day running of the school. We don’t approve money or contracts. What we do is policy-making. So, we have no access to such funds. The registrar is the secretary to the council and he has all the relevant documents.”

When asked to explain what he told detectives, Ogunlewe said, “I told them four things. First, the bursar asked for extension by one year and the council refused his application and that is why he is against the council. So, his petition is in bad faith.

“Secondly, the bursar was involved in N27m missing funds and so it is him that the EFCC should be investigating. Thirdly, we are about to appoint a new VC so there is a lot of fighting and politics going on.”

The Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities had on August 24, this year, staged a demonstration at the Ibadan office of the EFCC where they called on the Federal Government to investigate financial and other administrative activities of the vice-chancellor of the university.

During the protest, the Chairman of SSANU of the University of Ibadan, Wale Akinremi, who spoke on behalf of the leaders of the union, said the group staged the protest to condemn and reject the recent suspension of members of the union by the embattled VC.

He said the suspended members were targeted because they wrote a petition against the VC to the EFCC.

He said, “Our position is that as from this moment, SSANU as a union, ceases to recognise Prof. Oyewole as the VC of FUNAAB. We are saying that the Federal Government should beam its searchlight on the university system in Nigeria, especially on the pro-chancellors, the vice-chancellors and the bursars.”

The anti-graft agency said in a Facebook post that Ogunlewe was still being interrogated as of 4pm on Wednesday.

It said, “Senator Adeseye Ogunlewe, the Pro-Chancellor, FUNAAB, is being quizzed at the Iyaganku office of the EFCC, Ibadan today, August 31, 2016 in respect of an alleged case of abuse of office and misappropriation of funds reported against the university Pro-Chancellor, Vice-Chancellor, Prof. Olusola Oyewole, management and some members of the governing council.

“According to a petition submitted to the EFCC by the Concerned Stakeholders of the Federal University of Agriculture, it was alleged that the pro-chancellor and the vice-chancellor engaged in an ‘unbridled corruption and betrayal of public trust.’ Ogunlewe is still being interrogated by the EFCC operatives of the commission.”

The EFCC had on August 17 quizzed Oyewole and the university Bursar, Mr. Moses Ilesanmi, for their alleged roles in the case.

When contacted on the telephone by Punch Newspaper, Ogunlewe confirmed that he was quizzed by the commission but added that he was only asked to offer explanations and he left the anti-graft agency at 10am.

The former minister said the petition was initiated by the bursar who was aggrieved because the governing council refused to extend his tenure.

Ogunlewe added that the council had no access to N250m and therefore dismissed the allegation.

He said, “All our allowances are prescribed under the rules and regulations. The governing council sits only four times a year and our allowances cannot be altered. So, the allegations are false. In government you must sign whenever you receive money. So, how could we have signed off on that amount of money?

“The council is not involved in the day-to-day running of the school. We don’t approve money or contracts. What we do is policy-making. So, we have no access to such funds. The registrar is the secretary to the council and he has all the relevant documents.”

When asked to explain what he told detectives, Ogunlewe said, “I told them four things. First, the bursar asked for extension by one year and the council refused his application and that is why he is against the council. So, his petition is in bad faith.

“Secondly, the bursar was involved in N27m missing funds and so it is him that the EFCC should be investigating. Thirdly, we are about to appoint a new VC so there is a lot of fighting and politics going on.”

The Senior Staff Association of Nigerian Universities had on August 24, this year, staged a demonstration at the Ibadan office of the EFCC where they called on the Federal Government to investigate financial and other administrative activities of the vice-chancellor of the university.

During the protest, the Chairman of SSANU of the University of Ibadan, Wale Akinremi, who spoke on behalf of the leaders of the union, said the group staged the protest to condemn and reject the recent suspension of members of the union by the embattled VC.

He said the suspended members were targeted because they wrote a petition against the VC to the EFCC.

He said, “Our position is that as from this moment, SSANU as a union, ceases to recognise Prof. Oyewole as the VC of FUNAAB. We are saying that the Federal Government should beam its searchlight on the university system in Nigeria, especially on the pro-chancellors, the vice-chancellors and the bursars.”

PDP 2015 Election Bribe: EFCC Seizes 2 Giant Shopping Malls, Freezes N49m From Female INEC Commissioner, Gesil Khan

PDP 2015 Election Bribe: EFCC Seizes 2 Giant Shopping Malls, Freezes N49m From Female INEC Commissioner, Gesil Khan

PDP 2015 Election: EFCC Seizes 2 Giant Shopping Malls, Freezes N49m From Female INEC Commissioner, Gesil Khan
Two choice shopping malls allegedly acquired by a serving Resident Electoral Commissioner with her share of a bribe dished out by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) ahead of last year’s general elections, have been seized by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

A sum of N49 million found in the bank account of the REC, Gesil Khan, has also been frozen by the EFCC.

A total of N23.29b was disbursed under the poll bribery scam allegedly facilitated by ex-Minister of Petroleum Resources, Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke, of which N185, 842,000 went to Khan.

The anti-graft agency applied to the Federal High Court, Yenagoa for Interim Forfeiture Order in line with sections 26 and 29 of the EFCC Act to take over the account and the buildings which are located in Yenagoa, the Bayelsa State capital.

The order was granted, The Nation gathered yesterday.

Other beneficiaries of the largesse in the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and some PDP stalwarts are said to have refunded N503million to EFCC.

Of the N503 million thus refunded, N200million came from a former Military Administrator of Akwa Ibom State, Air Commodore Idongesit Nkanga ( rtd).

A total of N450million was allegedly traced to him.

The EFCC is yet to conclude its investigation of the INEC staff and PDP stalwarts who were implicated in the poll bribery scandal.

Khan and other INEC officers are being   probed for allegedly collecting N681million altogether.

The other INEC officers already grilled in connection with the matter  are: Fidelia Omoile (Electoral Officer in Isoko-South Local Government Area of Delta State)-N112,480,000 ; Uluochi Obi Brown (INEC’s Administrative Secretary in Delta State)-N111,500,000; a former Deputy Director  of INEC in Cross River State, Edem Okon Effanga-N241,127,000 and the Head of Voter Education in INEC in Akwa Ibom, Immaculata Asuquo-N214,127,000.

A source familiar with the case said: “We have been able to trace two choice shopping malls in Yenagoa to the affected REC Khan. Following the development, we applied to a Federal High Court for Interim Forfeiture Order in line with sections 26 and 29 of the EFCC Act.

“The court has granted our prayers to seize the two malls and appoint managers to take care of the properties in order to generate more revenue either for the government or the owner depending on how the trial ends.

“We  do not want the assets to lie fallow hence we recruited managers to be in charge until investigation and trial are concluded.

“During investigation, we discovered N49million in the account of REC Khan. Since she could not fully account for the sources of the money, we have frozen the account in line with our mandate.

“We are treating the money as likely proceeds of bribery or money laundering. The account will remain frozen until a court of law decides otherwise based on facts we will present during her trial.”

Sections 26 and 29 of the EFCC Act read in part:  “Any property subject to forfeiture under this Act may be seized by the commission in the following circumstances- (a) the seizure is incidental to an arrest or search; or (b) in the case of property liable to forfeiture upon process issued by the Court following an application made by the Commission in accordance with the prescribed rules

“Whenever property is seized under any of the provisions of this Act, the Commission may- (a) place the property under seal; or (b) remove the property to a place designated by the Commission.

“Properties taken or detained under this section shall be deemed to be in custody of the Commission, subject only to an order of a Court.”

Sections 28 and 34 of the EFCC (Establishment Act) 2004 and Section 13(1) of the Federal High Court Act, 2004 empower the anti-graft agency to invoke Interim Assets Forfeiture Clause.

“Section 28 of the EFCC Act reads: ‘Where a person is arrested for an offence under this Act, the Commission shall immediately trace and attach all the assets and properties of the person acquired as a result of such economic or financial crime and shall thereafter cause to be obtained an interim attachment order from the Court.’

Section 13 of the Federal High Court Act reads in part : “The Court may grant an injunction or appoint a receiver by an interlocutory order in all cases in which it appears to the Court to be just or convenient so to do.

(2)”Any such order may be made either unconditionally or on such terms and conditions as the Court thinks just.”

Investigation showed that about N503million has so far been recovered from the INEC staff and some PDP stalwarts by the Port Harcourt Zonal Office of the anti-graft agency.

The source added: “The Port Harcourt Zonal office has done excellently well in line with the vision of the EFCC chairman, Mr. Ibrahim Magu. It has so far recovered about N904million from January to August 17, including N503million from INEC staff and politicians involved in the poll bribery scandal.

“Out of the N503million, Air Commodore Idongesit Nkanga (rtd) refunded N200million from the N450million traced to him.

“Nkanga allegedly collected the money in two tranches, from a staff of Fidelity Bank in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State: Mr. Saint- Anthony Ejiowu.

“The first tranche of the money, a sum of N350,000,000 was collected on March 27, 2015 while the second tranch of N100,000,000 was collected on March 31, 2015. Nkanga signed for the two tranches.

“We will soon release the list of INEC staff that have refunded cash. But we have been sending brief to INEC management on all their staff under investigation and the status of each case.

“So far, INEC management is cooperating with us. When it is time to arraign such staff in court, we hope they will release them accordingly.”

APC 2015 Presidential Aspirant, Kwankwaso In Trouble Over N3b Campaign Funds He Used To Contest Against Buhari

APC 2015 Presidential Aspirant, Kwankwaso In Trouble Over N3b Campaign Funds He Used To Contest Against Buhari

APC 2015 Presidential Aspirant, Kwankwaso In Trouble Over N3b Campaign Funds He Used To Contest Against Buhari
Despite the invasion and subsequent sealing of his Kano home, on Monday, the Kano State former governor, now senator on the platform of the ruling All progressive Congress, APC,  Mr. Rabiu Kwankwanso, may have landed in fresh trouble over a N3 billion campaign fund used when he vied against the President Muhammadu Buhari and others in 2014.

According to Sahara Reporters, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has launched an investigation into the campaign spending of the former governor.

An impeccable source in the commission told SaharaReporters that 

The EFCC has found evidence that Kwankwaso diverted Kano State local government funds into his presidential campaign, an impeccable source revealed to SR.

The source hinted that Kwankwaso allegedly used his influence as governor to direct each of the 44 councils in the state contribute the sum of N70 million. Through this, he raised over N3 billion for his failed presidential bid.

The money was sourced from the State and Local Government Joint Account, an action that irked some state government officials, who petitioned the EFCC after Kwankwaso left office in 2015.

The petitioners were said to have also supplied vital documents on the alleged fund diversion to the EFCC, which prompted the commission to begin investigation. The investigation began in 2015 and has seen Mr. Rabiu Suleiman Bichi, former Secretary to the State Government, and Mr. Danjuma Mahmud, former Accountant-General visit the commission regularly. 

SaharaReporters also learnt that both Bichi and Mahmud were detained at one point of the investigation, but were granted bail.

The incumbent governor of the state, Mr.  Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, relieved Mahmud of his position because of the regularity of his visits to the EFCC, which he felt was distracting him.

The EFCC source added that recently, some local government chairmen were detained and granted administrative bail by the EFCC in connection with the campaign fund.

Billed to appear before the commission this week is the Chairman  of Fagge Local Government Area, Alhaji Habibu Saleh Mailemu. Next will be Ungogo Local Chairman, Saleh Aliyu. 

"I can tell you that we are investigating former governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, based on a petition we have received. That is what I can say for now," said the source.

PANICS In Senate, Reps As FG Probes N200b Constituency Projects Fraud; Compiles List of Senators, Reps Involved

PANICS In Senate, Reps As FG Probes N200b Constituency Projects Fraud; Compiles List of Senators, Reps Involved

PANICS In Senate, Reps As FG Probes N200b Constituency Projects Fraud; Compiles List of Senators, Reps Involved
There is palpable panic in Nigeria's legislative arm as the Federal Government commenced compilation the list of legislators in both chambers of the National Assembly over constituency projects earmarked for them in the 2014 and 2015 budgets, which were not executed, Punch Newspaper reports today

The sum of N100bn was earmarked for constituency projects in each of the 2014 and 2015 budgets.

The worth of constituency projects totalled N200bn for the two years.

The compilation of lawmakers inviled was being done by the police, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and the Independent Corrupt Practices and other related offences Commission, Mr. Abubakar Malami, The Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice confirmed to Punch Newspaper

Though he declined to give details “in order not to pre-empt investigation,” the AGF said the funds, the names of legislators and the constituency projects that were not executed would be made public after investigation.

He said his office and the law enforcement agencies had received complaints of how payments were made for constituency projects that were never executed.

He said, “The money for constituency projects had been taken, but certain allegations prevailed that some constituency projects were not executed after the money had been paid 100 per cent.

“If money is appropriated in the budget, paid and the projects the funds were meant for were not executed, it is only natural to take steps to find out what happened. If neither the money nor the project can be produced, then you must take steps in accordance with the law.

“There are cases that are specific; we are compiling them. I will not want to pre-empt investigation, we have to allow investigation to be concluded before we go public.”

When asked which of EFCC or ICPC was involved in probing the constituency project fraud, the minister responded, “including the police”.

 One of our correspondents learnt that the AGF had received petitions against many of the federal legislators, including a former Chairman, House Committee on Appropriation, Mr. Abdulmumin Jibrin.

Jibrin had also petitioned the EFCC, ICPC, the police and the Department of State Services, alleging that the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr. Yakubu Dogara, and three other principal officers had requested the inclusion of N40bn projects in the 2016 budget, besides other projects in sums ranging from N20bn to N30bn.

The police are currently investigating Jibrin’s allegations.
