Military Officers, 3 Firms Temporary Forfeit N200million To FG by Bilaludeen(m): 11:00pm On Jul 11, 2018 |
Justice Sule Hassan, sitting at a Federal High Court in Lagos on Wednesday, has ordered the interim forfeiture to the Federal Government, the sum of N200 million warehoused in some commercial banks by two military officers and their three companies pending the outcome of investigation on the money. According to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), the money was fraudulently withdrawn from the Defence Headquarters Over-head expenses accounts by the two officers and their companies. The two military officers are: Adamu Bello Argungu and John Onimisi Ozigi, while their companies are: Falsal & Co Global Services Nigeria Limited; Diamond Head Ventures & Development Company Limited; and Sweetex Bureau De Change Limited. The judge who presided over the court, ordered that the said sum be forfeited, in the interim, to the Federal government of Nigeria, pending the conclusion of investigation, after listening to the submissions of Mr. Nkereuwem Mark Anana, the EFCC counsel, who moved an exparte application for the order. In urging the court, the EFCC attached with the exparte application marked FHC/L/CS/1094/18, an 18-paragraph affidavit, two exhibits and a written address. The EFCC in an affidavit deposed to by one of its operative, Clever Ibrahim, averred that the two military officers, Adamu Bello Argungu and John Onimisi Ozigi are of the Nigerian Army and Air Force respectively, who made several unauthorized withdrawals from the Defence Headquarters Overhead Expenses Account. The deponent also stated that the money was deposited not in their salary accounts, nor the accounts belonging to the Defence headquarters, but in corporate accounts and other accounts belonging to their companies. He further stated that the accounts where the said money was warehoused are domiciled in Guaranty Trust Bank (GTB) account number 0142893798; 0229980366; 0023038546; 0023038553; 00223038539; 0052260716 and 0023673121, belonging to Adamu Bello Argungu and Falsal & Co Gloval Services Limited while Skye Bank Plc with account numbers: 1060118510 and 4010007344 belonged to John Onimisi Ozigi and his company, Diamond Head Ventures & Development Limited. He also stated that parts of the money was kept in First City Monument Bank (FCMB) account numbers 3584478019 and 3584478026 belonging to Sweetex Bureau De Change Limited while Zenith Bank Plc account with 1010260044, 1010399694 and 1000468142 belonging to Diamond Head Ventures. Furthermore, the deponent stated that John Onimisi Ozigi and his company, Diamond Head Ventures & Development Company Limited and kept parts of their money in Skye Bank Plc's account numbers: 1060118510 and 4010007344 respectively. He stated that though, a post-no-debit have been placed on the accounts by the provision of section 6(5) of the Money Laundering and Prohibition Act, 2011, which had lapsed after 72 hours, and that the order of the interim forfeiture was sought to debar the respondents from tampering with the money. http://surecontents..com/2018/07/military-officers-3-firms-temporary.html 1 Like 1 Share

Haven't received salaries till now, but kinda happy cos, I think it is because of tertiary institutions refusal to join the IPPS system that the federal government recommends to curb corruption and racketeering going on in tertiary institutions in Nigeria. Honestly at crossroads, in as much buhari have done very badly in security, the economy, polarizing the polity wit unguarded statements and subtle body language of supporting the killings in the north central but when it comes to plugging holes that are used to whisk cash away off the coffers of the government, trying to bring corrupt officials to book, well he has tried. The next president of Nigeria should be a sound economist, business man or even someone who is willing to bring in technocracts and listen to them for the collective good 13 Likes |
