Abdulrahman Mohammed Biu, an operative of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, who’s a deputy detective superintendent, has been arrested for extorting $150,000 from military officers involved in the ongoing investigation into the diversion of arms purchase funds.

According to Wilson Uwujaren, the Head, Media & Publicity for the EFCC, “the officer was arrested on Monday January 25, 2016 following intelligence report alleging that he extorted a whopping sum of $150,000 from some military officers on the pretext that he would help give them a soft landing in the ongoing investigation into the arms deal scandal.”

“Upon his arrest, a search was executed on his residence in Abuja where the following items were recovered: $20,000 cash, N500, 000 cash, two police uniforms bearing his name with the ranks of Deputy Superintendent and Assistant Superintendent, Police warrant card No: 27/2014 with the rank of DSP allegedly obtained from Kano Constabulary office, documents relating to military arms investigation and account information of several senior military officers.”

“A search of his car parked in the premises yielded the following items: unbranded pistol with a magazine and ten live ammunition. His modus operandi includes dropping the names of ranking officers of the Commission, claiming he was acting on their behalf. A paper containing seven of such names was recovered in his house.

“The suspect has made useful statement, while investigation continues”, Uwujaren added.

The type of corruption we have in Nigeria is not found anywhere else in this world.

It has eaten too deep into our national fabric.
