Abiodun Nejo, Ado Ekiti

A member of Ekiti State House of Assembly, Dr Samuel Omotoso, has removed markings of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission from a two-storey commercial building in Ado Ekiti, the Ekiti State capital.

The building, marked “Under Investigation, Please keep off” by EFCC, was among property believed to be linked to former Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose, that the anti-graft agency sealed on November 22.

Omotoso said removal of the markings at the weekend was consequent upon presentation of documents to EFCC to prove his family ownership of the property.

The lawmaker, in a statement entitled “Re: Marked Ekiti Lawmaker’s Property: Issues Resolved with EFCC”, that he signed, stated: “I have been given clearance to remove the markings on the property.

“All questions and expectations on our documentation on means of purchase and construction of the said property by me and my wife have been sufficiently demonstrated to the EFCC.

“This demonstration necessitated my unaccompanied personal visit to the EFCC Headquarters on 29th of November 2018, where the issue was resolved.

“The Property in question at No 10 Odundun Street, Okesa, Ado- Ekiti, belongs to me and my wife without let or hindrance.

“The EFCC also explained that contrary to perception, our property wasn’t sealed nor was I indicted for any infraction, but marked so as to identify the owner.

“We also agreed that based on logistics reasons, time constraints and on request, that I have been given clearance to remove the markings on the property so I can live my private life in peace.

“We also resolved that this country belongs to all of us and all hands must be on deck to strenghten our institutions and preserve personal liberties,” he said.

Marked to identify the owner? What a useless EFCC

madapcmod:
EFCC fools and Buhari attack ekuke bingos, should be sued by Fayose for falsely accusing him of the ownership of the said house which they quickly marked with red warnings. By so doing they have accused him wrongly.

Toothless and hypocritical agency doing the bidding of the lifeless cattle in aso Rock. I haven't heard about EFCC Investigating the Gandollar bullion van Governor caught red handed. Stupid things

Spits on EFCC hypocrisy

sexiestharam:
Has EFCC marked Ganduje's houses and his dollars? What of Omisore and Akpabio's houses? Fake and stupid one sided corruption fights! Rubbish!

TheMoniker:
Buhari has reduced Efcc to a dog that can only bark and can’t bite now they are very busy chasing yahoo boys instead of corrupt politicians.
I’m so sad this is happening.
Those of you shouting like a raving mad dog that Buhari is fighting corruption don’t even know a country must glow from one illegal ills or the other.
Illegal weapon sale is what us, Russia and the likes are benefiting from and Mexico drugs.
UK benefited and grew from slave trade which was legal. Who told you corruption is illegal? West! Ori yin kuku ti ku olodo.

Hedonini:
This is too sad. A crucial state institution like the EFCC operating based on kalo kalo modus operandi, guesswork. Gossip. Hearsay. It is ridiculous and disgusting. Why did they publicly accuse Fayose of owning the said property without proof, and worst of all, quickly defaced the building with their pathetically ugly red blood marking 'under investigation by the EFCC'? Why not conclude your investigation, charge the case to court and AFTER getting a conviction, you seal the building with appropriate confidence and legal backing?

Well, I'm not surprised...since the EFCC is populated and led by abokki fools with zero intelligence and subzero competence. No sense and strategy in anything; everything is Herdsmen-like aggression and gra gra. With their zomana Kai Kai walahi walahi mentality. This country would NEVER work with these animals in power in all important institutions and positions.
