Court Strikes Out Azibola Robert's Suit Against EFCC by reportnaijanews(m): 7:45pm On Jun 21, 2016
Justice Candid Johnson of the Lagos State High Court sitting in Igbosere today, June 21, struck out a motion filed against the EFCC by Azibola Robert, a cousin of the former President Goodluck Jonathan, asking the court to restrain the Commission from arresting, detaining or investigating him. The motion was struck out on grounds of lacking diligent prosecution.



In the motion, Azibola requested for an order nullifying and setting aside the remand order obtained by the EFCC to remand him, an order directing the Commission to release him from custody, an order of perpetual injunction restraining the EFCC or any person whatsoever acting for/on behalf of the Commission from arresting or detaining him and demand of special damages in the sum of N200, 000,000 (Two Hundred Million Naira Only). Azibola is being investigated by the EFCC for suspicious contracts awarded to him by the former National Security Adviser to former President, Goodluck Jonathan.

The investigation revealed that between 2012 and 2015, Colonel Sambo Dasuki allegedly awarded fictitious contracts to the tunes of N2,219,188,609.50 ( Two Billion, Two Hundred and Nineteen Million, One Hundred and Eighty Eight Thousand, Six Hundred and Nine Naira, Fifty Kobo), $1,671,742,613.58 (One Billion, Six Hundred Seventy One Million, Seven Hundred and Forty Two Thousand, Six Hundred and Thirteen Dollars Fifty Eight Cents) and €9,905,477.00 (Nine Million, Nine Hundred and Five Thousand, Four Hundred and Seventy Seven Euros) respectively to Azibola and his companies and proxies. Also the sums of $40 million and N650 million was said to have been traced in the bank account of Azibola as moneies paid by the former NSA.

It would be recalled that Azibola made similar motion before Abuja High Court and same was dismissed by Honourable Justice O.O Goodluck of Abuja High Court. He later filed two separate motions before Honourable Justice C.M.A Olatoregun of the Federal High Court Lagos and Justice Candid Johnson of the Lagos High Court.

We know how it ends. Buhari has no moral right to investigate or prosecute anyone. The EFCC are simply wasting their time. They should start with Buhari’s campaign funds and then we will know they're serious.
Stop wasting our time and fix the economy.

My brother I disagree with you on this, if you're found wanting you will have to pay the price, we here still trying to convince the Government to bring people like Amaechi and Co to join you, you're saying they shouldn't investigate you, no you got it wrong , you must be investigated, tried and if found guilty serve you prison term, don't worry you not be alone very soon Amaechi and Fashola will join you.

A gateman employed to safeguard a house connived with thieves to burglarize the house. Some of the burglars were caught and they confessed that the gateman invited them. The owner of the house fired the gateman and got a replacement. The police wanted to arrest the former gateman but the house owner intervened because he believed the gateman is a nice and gentle fellow who happens to keep bad friends. As a matter of fact, the owner thinks his former gateman is a hero.

Now this is where common sense challenges reality. Goodluck Jonathan is a crook and a slow poison. Like they say, pretenders do the worst.
