EFCC Arrests Abumere Joseph Osagie, FIRS Director For Tax Fraud by LocalChamp: 11:03pm On Jan 29, 2016 |
Posted By: Yusuf Alli, Managing Editor, Northern Operation on: January 29, 2016 The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has arrested Abumere Joseph Osagie, a Deputy Director, Regional Tax Office of the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS), for allegedly attempting to extort N5 million from the Chancellor of Baze University, Abuja, Senator Ahmed Datti. He was arrested with one Jamila Ojora for abuse of office and bribery. A statement issued by the Head, Media and Publicity of the EFCC, Mr. Wilson Uwujaren, said the FIRS deputy director was arrested following a complaint about his attempt to extort a university chancellor’s N5million. The statement said: “Osagie and one Jamila Ojora had on January 27, 2016 allegedly approached Senator Ahmed Datti, the Chancellor of Baze University, Abuja and gave him a tax assessment of N20,029, 496.00 through a letter of intent, which he paid. “However, when he requested for the assessment certificate, they refused to oblige him. Instead they allegedly demanded for N5 million gratification. All pleas by him fell on deaf ears. “Consequently, he petitioned the EFCC, and was advised to play along. Consequently, marked N5million was delivered to the director through Ojora in a sting operation. Ojora was arrested after she collected the N5 million. Her confession led to the arrest of Osagie. “The houses of the suspects were searched by operatives of the EFCC and documents recovered. Investigations continue.” http://thenationonlineng.net/efcc-arrests-firs-director-for-tax-fraud/ 11 Likes 1 Share |

They, these days, seem to be making waves with higher amplitude than that of BIA,CIA,FBI combined. They even arrested one of their members sef. Still waiting for the headline: "EFCC arrested its creator" On a second thought, what happened to ICPC? Has EFCC harvested/arrested all its members? 7 Likes 2 Shares |

Nice one there from Efcc. The only sad part is that bulk of the recovered funds will still develop wings in their very watch. |
