kristisking:
The likes of you are the ones taking this country back.What does it profit you praising a thief which stole money that could have been used for projects you can benefit from.

ogmaskman:


Who said he stole. What do u know about the reserve fund. Btw the commission was set up to look into govt properties sold illegally and the chairman is talking about reserve funds that was duely releaCommsed by the house of assembly to the same man who saved it. I raise my left toe for una. Imagin wike calling Amaechi thief. Wonders shall never end.

The Rivers State Judicial Commission of Inquiry on Wednesday submitted its report to the State Governor, Nyesom Wike, with an appeal to him to recover stolen funds belonging to the people, including the sum of N53 billion taken from the State Reserve Fund.

The commission was set up by Wike to investigate the sale of valued assets belonging to the state by the Rotimi Amaechi administration.

Chairman of the commission, Justice George Omereji, suggested that the state governor should swing into action and ensure that billions of Naira belonging to the state stashed away in some places were returned while those found culpable should be prosecuted.

Omereji, who spoke with newsmen after submitting the panel’s report, disclosed that investigation had revealed that the immediate past administration in the state had removed N53 billion from the N55 billion left in the State Reserve Fund between 2014 and May 2015.

He explained that the commission could not find any project linked to the withdrawal of the N53billion from the state reserve fund and added that the money was shared among cronies of the past administration.

Describing the task given to the panel as enormous, Omereji also disclosed that the immediate past administration could not actualise the building of the Justice Karibi Whyte Hospital, even when a huge amount of money had been paid to contractors for the project.

He said, “There was the sum of N55 billion in the State Reserve Fund. Between 2014 and May 2015, they (immediate past administration) were able to remove N53 billion and we found out that the money (N53 billion) was not used for the projects in the state. The money went to individuals. From the papers submitted to us, we also found out that the money was given to people they like.

“We went to the site of the Justice Karibi Whyte Hospital, we did not see anything at all. When I told the project contractor to come with us (panel) to the place, he said snakes would bite us.

“But I insisted that we should go there. Behold, by the time we went inside, we did not see anything. The whole billions of Naira given to the man cannot be accounted for. We have recommended that those found culpable should refund the money. We even recommended that some people should be prosecuted.

“I don’t want to tell you those that will be prosecuted. It is not good for me to reveal the content of the recommendations now because we have just submitted our report.”

Earlier, Omereji had informed the governor that 27 memoranda and 142 exhibits were received by the commission and added that 25 witness testified before the panel.

“We hope that the government will act fast and by the time the government looks into this report and act fast, it will be able to recover billions that are still stashed in where they kept them.

“That money belongs to Rivers people and they should be recovered so that we can use it for the people of Rivers State,” Omereji insisted.

He, however, thanked Wike for giving him and members of the panel the opportunity to serve the state, promising to be available to serve whenever the need arises.

Responding, the state governor vowed to implement the recommendations of the Omereji-led panel and maintained that his administration would not be intimidated by any person or group of persons.

IBBG:

Demdem:



U sound daft. So Amaechi started spending on Buhari since early 2014? Succks to be u.

According to him, the first resolution was made in 13 February, 2014, followed by the second and third resolutions which took place on 25 February, 2014 and 20 October, 2014 while the fourth and last resolution was made on18 May, 2015 prior to the handover of the former governor.

Based on the resolutions passed, the witness stated that Amaechi withdrew N30 billion, N19 billion, and N5 billion, apart from the fourth request of N1billion, which he recollected though was granted

Any evidence against Ameachi so far ? 27.000 pound was seen and seize from Diezani, Million was seen in her house in Abuja..

ezebunafo:

playtheblues:
How much millions? Quite easy for you to belive sahara reports on non-APC members but you are quite reluctant to believe that Amechi is facing charges for spening more than N53m of Riverss state treasury, plus other financial appropriation

bashydemy:
You just been fooling yourself, Which charges is he facing and in which court? Diezani is facing charges in a Magistrate court in UK and the world know that............ Bukola Saraki is facing false declaration charges in CCT in Abuja and everyone knows that... Wike is facing election rigging in Election tribunal in Abuja and everyone knows that.. So now tell me which crime is Ameachi facing and in which court?
