The Executive Chairman

Economic and Financial Crimes Commission

Dear Madam,



RE: REQUEST FOR THE INVESTIGATION OF THE SOURCE OF FUNDING OF THE BUILDING OF N0.9A GERARD ROAD, IKOYI, LAGOS, NIGERIA KNOWN AS ‘ ADMIRALTY TOWERS’.



We write in request of the above subject matter. We are Anti-Corruption Non Governmental Organizations based in Calabar, Cross River State of Nigeria . In consonance with the objectives  of these NGOS ,we humbly and respectfully invite you to launch an investigation into the ownership of No. 9 A Gerard Road, Ikoyi, Lagos known as ‘ ADMIRALTY TOWERS’. The property is a Three Sets of High Rise luxury Flats. Presently it is rented to some multinational oil firms.



We suspect that this massive property was built with proceeds from ‘dirty money’ stolen by Mr. Donald Duke, Governor of Cross River State of Nigeria , 1999-2007.



We further use this medium to request to launch investigation into all the Petitions which we had submitted to your Commission against Donald Duke and his wife for the massive corruption, graft and stealing of public funds in Cross River State which the Commission has refused to investigate. We urge your Commission to particularly investigate the deduction of allocation of money from the Federation Accounts to the Local Government Councils in Cross River State from 2003-2007. We invite to investigate the role of Mrs. Onari Duke and her NGO ‘Enterprise Nigeria Foundation’ in the illegal withdrawal of hundreds of Million of Naira from the Joint State Local Government Accounts into the coffers of the said NGO. We had sent to the Commission payment vouchers showing how these monies were illegally siphoned from the Joint State Accounts.



We invite to investigate the misappropriation of the sum of N1 billion allocated towards the resettlement of the people of Bakassi affected by the Green Tree Agreement between Nigeria and Cameroon . We invite to investigate the disappearance from the coffers of the Government of Cross River State of the more than N2 Billon awarded Cross River State by the Supreme Court in a case instituted by the Cross River State against the Federal Government of Nigeria and Akwa Ibom State over the ownership of Oil Wells.  We invite to investigate the indebtedness of the Cross River State which is approximately put in the region of more than N120 Billion. All these debts were incurred by Donald Duke under the guise of the development of the Tinapa Business Resort even after he claimed the project was private sector driven. We believe that the money used to develop the said No. 9 A Gerard Road, Ikoyi, Lagos known as ‘ADMIRALTY TOWERS’ came from these illicit deals that were the hallmarks of Donald Duke’s Government in Cross River State. We urge you to save the future generation of Cross River State from being perpetual debtors over questionable loans that ended up in the private pockets of corrupt officials. 



It is curious that your Commission has failed to act with dispatch in this matter concerning Donald Duke. We implore  you to dust all our Petitions that have gathered dust from your archives to prove or show that they are no sacred cows in our country again.



We urge not to allow Donald Duke and his mindless cohorts get away from their atrocious and hideous crimes against the people of Cross River State in his eights of adventure.





Yours sincerely



Okoi Obono-Obla
