EFCC Arrests APC Chieftain For Contract Scam by kahal29: 4:42am On Nov 26, 2015
Mr. Miebi Bribena, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress in Bayelsa State, has been reportedly arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission over alleged contract scam at the Presidential Amnesty Programme.

Bribena, said to be a major beneficiary of the PAP Amnesty, was arrested early on Wednesday by operatives of the anti-graft agency.

He was said to have be taken to the agency’s headquarters in Wuse in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, where he was quizzed for several hours.

He was still being detained at the EFCC office as of the time of this report.

It was learnt that Bribena was being interrogated over allegations that he absconded after collecting huge mobilisation fees from the Amnesty office without executing the contract for which he was paid.

Bribena was said to have collected about 95 per cent of the contract sum but that nothing was on the ground to justify the amount collected.

The Director, Media and Publicity, Sylva-Igiri Campaign Organisation, Chief Nathan Egba, while reacting to Bribena’s arrest, said he had not been fully briefed on the matter.

He, however, clarified that Bribena was not a spokesman for Sylva but a member of the APC.

“If the arrest is true, it means that Muhammadu Buhari is a President who does not shield anybody from corruption, irrespective of whether you are an APC member or not. However, I have not been fully briefed on the matter,” he said.

You get to hear billions trillions and this people are still walking the street unharmed, Nigeria is a big ZOO, common wealth meant for everyone only few embezzeled them, Baboons and monkeys are still in the cage because Nigeria is no man's country. Where is the patriotism? Where is to be faithful loyal and honest in your anthem? In my country there's patriotism that's why all BIAFRANS don't need to be told what to do, in Biafra we don't need criminal code or penal code because we all know what's good and bad.

I wonder why you people have so much disdain for the truth. You even find it difficult to praise when due.

If he was a PDP member, will you be saying this arrant rubbish? Will he be regarded as "unknown" by you if he was not a member of APC?

This post of your is tainted with hypocrisy. Were you biafrauds not criticising Buhari for having a supposed military tendency even as a democrats?

Now you advocate he should be dictator just so you have another excuse? Typical. You lot must do all you can to give a dog a bad name in order to have an evil excuse to hang it.

Fear GOD, After GOD fear biafrauds.

Those embittered species will still come here and shout APC propaganda, change topic or resort to vain blabbing as usual.
When efcc arrest an APC member, it is propaganda but when they merely invite a PDP member the cry of selective justice and Witch hunting will rent the air.

I love President Muhammadu Buhari very much in fact I hold him to high esteem. My problem with you guys is your failure to know that if you actually a citizen of your country you don't need to steal what belongs to you-patriotism. Because Nigeria is no mans country but only for the criminals, pls open your eyes and see that nothing works in your country because your big men are united in crime, only pmb cannot stop it therefore you stay under your bed and make noise about it it ends there, if it happen in Biafra everyone will be out on the street we are not cowards buddy.

PMB is delaying the prosecution of most of these corrupt people because of the heavy corruption in our Judiciary.


Where there is no justice there is no peace. Justice in Nigeria is up for sale. Our Judiciary is the biggest threat to this country's fight against corruption.


I hope Osinbajo is able to come up with a new court design that will fast track prosecution of corrupt officials without all the unnecessary and perpetual adjournments that stall the cases.

I can categorically tell you that this wicked man was not APC member before now. After siphoning the contract money(cos am sure that would be during the last govt), he quickly joined APC thinking that he would be spared. No way!

God let him rot in jail for adding salt to the injury of the Niger Deltans.
