BREAKING: EFCC Arrests Former Senate President Ekweremadu – See Why by GoldenEnudi: 11:32am On Oct 07, 2021
GoldenNewsNg reports that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Monday arrested former Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, for alleged fraud and failing to explain how he came to own 22 properties in Nigeria, the United States, the United Kingdom and the United Arab Emirates.

According to SaharaReporters, EFCC sources said Ekweremadu was interrogated for several hours in Abuja and allowed to go home later. He is expected to return to the commission for further questioning at a later date.

“Ekweremadu returned to the EFCC to offer explanations on how he acquired many choice properties in Nigeria, United States of America and United Arab Emirates.
“He was with us two weeks ago and also on Monday,” a source said.
This comes three years after Ekweremadu fell ill during interrogation by operatives of the anti-graft commission.

The politician in 2018 took ill after some hours of questioning at the EFCC office in Abuja and was released to seek medical attention.


The Nigerian government had in March 2018 sought an interim order of the Federal High Court, Abuja, to temporarily seize 22 prime properties/assets of Ekweremadu located in London, Dubai, Florida, and Abuja, that were not declared before the CCB.

The motion ex-parte filed by Festus Keyamo (SAN) on behalf of the Special Presidential Investigation Panel for the Recovery of Public Property was brought before the court pursuant to Section 330 of The Administration Of Criminal Justice Act, 2015; Section 8 Of The Recovery Of Public Property (Special Provisions) Act and Section 44 (2)(K) of the 1999 Constitution.

In an affidavit deposed to in support of the motion ex parte by Yohanna Shankuk, a litigation clerk in Festus Keyamo Chambers, he stated that from 1999 till date, Ekweremadu had been a public officer and had not earned anything outside his salaries and allowances as a public officer

These idiots instantly fall sick whenever they are interrogated for money laundering. This trick is becoming rather stale.

To be honest, I don't know how to blame a lawmaker for stealing public funds. I blame that nonentity who gives lawmakers money to execute projects in their constituencies.

Why do we have federal ministry of works and still award these politicans projects to execute? If there's no money to loot, how possible is it that people will be corrupt? Nigeria is a useless country.

If only Buhari is truly fighting corruption,i won't find it difficult to support him,even if my biological father is involved, because a corrupt politicians mean no good either to his people nor the country at large. But the obvious truth is that this are witch hunt, but i still don't care ,mr ekweremadu if you have looted what you were supposed to use to develop your own constituency to prive pocket pls endeavour to answer even if is my enemy that is calling you. I no get time for rubbish.
