Your Troubling Silence-Letter to Festus Keyamo

THURSDAY, 08 JANUARY 2009 10:25    OMOYELE SOWORE
 
Dear Mr. Festus Keyamo:

I am personally sending you this mail regarding the corrupt activities of Mrs. Farida Waziri, the chairperson of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), even as I suspect you must have read some of our reports on Saharareporters.com detailing Mrs. Waziri's engagement in a variety of criminal acts bordering on corruption, abuse of office and outright theft of public funds since assumption of office in 2008.

Saharareporters.com has documented Mrs. Waziri's illegitimate activities since assuming office at the EFCC, and a number of these are attached to this mail.

You have spent some time justifying and defending the punishment meted out to Nuhu Ribadu, the former EFCC chairman. While this is your prerogative, we are disturbed that a vocal critic and anti-corruption activist of your stature has maintained stoic silence about the extensive acts of corruption and collusion with corrupt serving or former public officials perpetrated both by Mrs. Waziri and Nigeria's chief law officer, Attorney General Michael Aondoakaa. As one who admired your activist credentials, I must hope that your retainership with the EFCC has not become a stumbling block to your continued advocacy of justice and fight against corruption in all its appearances, guises and manifestations. It would be sad if your relationship with the EFCC becomes an excuse to shirk your responsibility as a self-avowed public conscience and commentator on matters of corruption, abuse of office and human rights violations.

In bringing these reports to your attention, I hope to challenge you to rise above any primordial interest that might have constituted a hindrance to your ability to speak up on the manifold corrupt activities involving both Mrs. Waziri and Mr. Aondoakaa.

I hope you would recognize that the times call for moral courage, and that the time to speak up and act is now.

Thanks and happy New Year!

Sincerely,

Omoyele Sowore

often wondered why he suddenly developed an emergency sore throat soon as he got employed by efcc as well, they are all rogues and only using the anti corruption crusade to build their resume and career

Retained by the EFCC? Smart bit of work by Farida.
With the guy earning millions every month for doing nothing . . . what does he care about "justice" for ribadu?

Keyamo is taking too much time to respond to this letter, very unlike my man to waste time like this. Please can somebody remind him that we are still waiting.
