Femi Adesina Collected 50M Cash From Dasuki - Nduka Obaigbena by urbanmonk: 7:39pm On Jan 04, 2016
Culled from Nduka's letter to Efcc

6. Why did ONSA pay General Hydrocarbons Ltd and not directly to the account of NPAN? We did supply the account of NPAN to the Federal Government through the ONSA once we agreed the N120,000,000 compensation for member newspapers. But when I got a call from an official of the ONSA informing me that the payments agreed with The President was ready and should arrange to pick up cash, I balked and refused, asking him to pay to the NPAN account. Even when he suggested that The Nigerian Guild of Editors – NGE -(who are now calling for a probe) was paid N50,000,000 cash by the ONSA when President Jonathan donated to the building of the NGE secretariat, I still refused to collect cash and in any case, I had no independent confirmation the Nigerian Guild of Editors had collected cash. And even if they did, I was not prepared to do so. And when he insisted, after I had refused to pick up such a huge amount in cash, we agreed in good faith they credit the account of General Hydrocarbons Ltd, who upon legal advice, were acting in agency in line with industry practice where most payments are received through agencies, but in this instance, at no cost. General Hydrocarbons Ltd did receive the payments on behalf of NPAN and delivered same to NPAN, at no cost, despite bank charges. General Hydrocarbons Ltd – a member of the THISDAY Newspapers Group – who are bonafide members of NPAN – therefore collected the compensation on behalf NPAN and passed on exactly what was collected in fulfillment of the out-of-court settlement reached between President Goodluck Jonathan and the expanded leadership of NPAN who attended the June 12, 2014 meeting, at the invitation of The President, at State House Marina, Lagos to ensure newspapers are never again clamped down after years of military harassment.

See Femi who is telling lies to cover his oga, mr president. What can he tell nigerians about his own share if the loot.? Am sure Buhari is not aware of this. Even if he knows, he will say the obvious," No CORRUPT person in my cabinet" Thief identifying the footsteps of another thief on a rock

2. Why was the payment made to General Hydrocarbons Ltd and not to THISDAY directly?

First, President Goodluck Jonathan made it clear at the beginning that he did not want to create a precedent by paying THISDAY compensation given we had several victims of Boko Haram bombings around the country. Once payment was approved for the reconstruction of the UN Buildings in Abuja, that continued refusal or reluctance to pay us became tenuous as we were the next institution to be so bombed after the UN and Police Headquarters buildings which were then being reconstructed by the Federal Government. So when the ONSA said that they had approval to pay us, but would rather not set a precedent by paying THISDAY directly, we nominated a member company of the THISDAY Newspapers Group, called General Hydrocarbons Ltd., to receive the payments on behalf of the group of companies, given that the assets of General Hydrocarbons Ltd – mainly generators – were also destroyed in the bombings.

The Bold above, is enough to convict you!

Useless Nduka!

Please read that Nigerian Guild of Editors collected N50 million donation towards its secretariat. However, the money was paid in cash.

My brother, I'm appalled at the extent journalism has sank. The exposition shows how GEJ went to the lowest level to bribe journalists. Even then some media houses still maintain blind loyalty.

Nah, you can't put this on journalists. It is the op trying to make his own deductions. The original title of the story from the source is at variance with the title of the thread.

Never say never, for someone who once talked against Buhari as part GEJ campaign it isn't impossible.
