Oronsaye Det To Be Charge To Court!! by Justbright(m): 9:11am On Jul 10, 2015
Everything points to arraignment — EFCC official
By Soni Daniel, Regional Editor, North
ABUJA — FormeR Head of Service of the Federation, HoSF, Mr. Steve Oronsaye, yesterday, returned to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC’s custody ahead of possible arraignment.
Oronsaye was arrested and detained by operatives of the anti-graft agency, Wednesday, but released late night and asked to turn in himself, yesterday.
Vanguard learnt that Oronsaye was, however, asked to go home at about 6p.m., yesterday, and asked to report back to the commission today.

A top official in the commission confirmed to Vanguard that the former top civil servant had been taken in, yesterday, and that every indication pointed to the fact that he would be formally charged before an Abuja Federal High Court.
The official said: “Yes, Mr. Oronsaye is with our operatives preparatory to his arraignment. He was allowed to go yesterday after spending a long time and making useful statement to us. He was ordered to return to our investigators today and he reported around 10a.m. today (yesterday)”
It was not clear if he would be arraigned today or not.
Vanguard learnt that apart from being associated with the mismanagement of huge pensions funds, Oronsaye is being investigated over allegations by top Federal Government officials that he used his position as the chairman of the Presidential Standing Committee on Financial Action Taskforce to fleece the government.
The anti-graft agency source said: “Oronsaye is also being interrogated on fresh allegations of monumental fraud and embezzlement of funds in the running of a Presidential Standing Committee on Financial Action Taskforce, which he chairs.
“The committee is a policy advisory body to the President on the implementation of the AML/CFT. Oronsaye allegedly used it as a conduit to siphon and launder money.
“This fresh lead is triggered by allegations by some members of the committee who claim that Oronsaye operated an illegal account in a first generation bank in the committee’s name without the knowledge of the members through which he has laundered hundreds of millions of naira.”
The renowned bureaucrat has earlier been questioned in relation to the September 2014 damning 169-page report by the office of the Auditor General of the Federation claiming that Oronsaye mismanaged over N123 billion during his tenure as HoSF.
The report, entitled “Special Audit of the Accounts of the Civil Pensions,” found Mr. Oronsaye guilty of allegedly presiding over the looting of the nation’s resources during his tenure.

I laff at your ignorance.

This is exactly how he stiffled any opposition figure to his criminal ascension as head of state.

Your people cheered on but when he started arresting and harrasing your leaders including Awolowo you began to have a rethink.

After he locked them up or force them into exile or silenced them like the way he did Awolowo who called for a coup and supported Buhari's emergence , Buhari will later issue decree 4 to silence the 4th estate.

This is 2015 and we have the 5th estate - Social media. I am waiting for one of your Southwest slave legislators to sponsor a law regulating our thoughts .

And what of all of Wike's petitions to the EFCC and IPCC?

Buhari is using the cloak of anti-corruption to stifle his potential opponents just as he is deceitfully using the chibok scam nonsense to justify negotiating and subsequently releasing captured Boko commanders

You forgot that most of these cases especially that of Lamido where opened during GEJ.

When the case of Lamido's son being arrested popped up most of you APC supporters aligned with Lamido and saw it as political witch hunting since Lamido's presidential ambition was no secret.

You APC supporters also supported Lamido when your party was busy lobbying him. I remember Berem and egift shamelessly promoting this man even though he was not in your party. Even Obasanjo was rooting for Lamido. When Lamido turned down your offer and declared he can never join APC your support for this man fizzled.

As for Wike, he has all evidence available to put Amaechi in jail.

If the EFCC or IPCC fail to investigate and arraign Amaechi, Wike has the option of trying Amaechi in a Rivers' High Court.

Buhari as far as am concerned is corrupt and his bias stance is ample evidence that he is selective in his corruption war.

Lamido was never courted by the APC leadership, yes he had friends in APC but the party was not his friend and never defended him.

Lamido was not only wooed but was seen as a more sell able candidate by Tinubu before the APC merger.

This continue even after the merger.

These are facts
