I urge the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and the Independent and Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission to start arresting and prosecuting former governors’ wives along with their husbands.

This has become necessary as the wives supported their husband-governors to loot the tills while in office. The former first ladies also engaged in corrupt practices, as some of their programmes lacked merit and accountability. Let them be prosecuted together. This should warn the incumbents.

When the AGF is protecting the Former Governors themselves from Prosecution, you are still calling EFCC, Forget it abeg. Yeyee Country with A lawyer of thieves as AGF, worse is yet to come.
Soon corruption will be part of rule of law and due process

what of ex first ladies?? all the way down the line!! we never probe the governors finish, u are asking for their wives. also include girlfriends and concubines abeg.

@aisha2

take it easy, we cannot have a lawless state all in the name of fighting corruption. these governors are innocent till proven guilty. mind you dont pay attention to the massive decay in our infrastructures, dont bother bout the billions in various accounts abroad, dont bother about the number people dying cos of poor heallth care. Rule of law must just be followed and also d magic word!!!! due process.

I agree with you, but how do you charge somebody who has no office?
The constitution of Nigeria does not recognize the office of the first lady, thereby does not officially receive money for projects from the government. The past and present governors should be the ones standing trial for diverting public funds to the infamous first ladies office; then at the end of the day, the so called first ladies will account for the all the monies used.

A typical example is Murtalla Nyako whose four wives are playing first ladies at the same time.

The truth is that there's nothing a Nigerian woman can do to prevent her husband from stealing. There's the (slight) possibility to that you will end up punishing some innocent spouses. The fairest way to punish them is to seize all the money and properties their husbands stole.

like alams and tafa balogun right? and also the famous abacha loot??

For what Dr. Sam Egwu did to the people of Ebonyi State, Eunice Egwu should also be prosecuted as well. Let's not forget that Hope High International School was also acquired with public funds allocated to the state. As stated, "the projects include Hope High International School, Grace Court Hotel and Suites, Widow Care Foundation headquarters building, and private properties of the Egwus in Abakaliki. Investigations at the EFCC revealed that Nwonu, the former auditor-general for local governments, had sometime ago discovered about N3 billion fraud in the local government system. Instead of being rewarded, he was reportedly suspended by Egwu's administration".
