Wife of ex-President
Goodluck Jonathan, Patience,
on Thursday alleged that the
four persons who pleaded
guilty to money laundering
charges on behalf of the four
companies linked to her were
mercenaries hired by the
Economic and Financial
Crimes Commission, EFCC.
A statement by her media
aide, Chima Osuji, described
the persons as “unknown”
and were never authorised
by the companies’ boards to
plead guilty on behalf of the
companies.
Patience Jonathan argued
that the EFCC failed to comply
with Section 477 (2) of the
Administration of Criminal
Justice Act, 2015, by not
presenting to the court on
Thursday any letter to show
that the four persons were
authorised by the companies
to represent them.
“This is a clear evidence of
the desperation of the
prosecution to pull down the
former First Lady and
confiscate her hard-earned
money.
“It is an irony that it was the
former First Lady who went
to court for the repatriation
of her confiscated money
when she realised that the
EFCC and its co-travellers
were playing politics with this
issue after she had come out
publicly to say that the said
money belongs to her and
that she has all evidence to
prove the sources of her
money.
“Up till this very moment, the
EFCC has refused to
interrogate or invite her for
questioning. The biggest
twist in court on Thursday
was that the fourth to
seventh defendants pleaded
guilty to all the 15 counts.
“It is clear that these
unknown faces were agents
of the EFCC, who have been
stage-managed and tutored
to come to court to complicate
the case as a strategy to
confiscate her money,”
Patience Jonathan said.

One thing I have noticed is when Buhari and his co travellers are been lamblasted for poor performance and poor state of the nation, they bring out something to keep the citizens busy for sometime so as to forget everything happening. In as far as I don't support corruption, EFCC under Buhari are for a revenge mission. We have seen from the past how they are always quick to swing into corrupt opposition case but will never attend to APC corrupt cases.

Everybody has forgotten and moved on with Budget padding, Burutai Dubai Massion and so many corruption cases of the people in government been swept under the carpet. The worst of all is when it comes to opposition, you see APC loyalist shouting "our money" and some will even say it's the cause of this recession. But when it comes to people in power looting inspite of the present state of the nation, you will hear them saying they saved from there salary to arquire millions of dollar properties, some will say no evidence against them.

It is high time we condemn corruption irrespective of the party involve not using EFCC and DSS as a tool for revenge and oppression. The accuse is seeking for invite to clarify herself but instead she wasn't even invited but court is already acting on the matter. I have never seen where someone accused of stealing, robbery, murder, corruption been charged to court without been arrested or invited.

EFCC has been chasing shadow for the past 1 years and 4 months now. They are only very active on page of newspapers, disobeying democratic orders and spreading lies everywhere.
