N23bn Election Fund: How N900m Was Shared In Gombe, Adamawa by sight: 6:17am On May 26, 2016
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has intensified its investigation of all gravy funds with aim of recovering as much from the beneficiaries.

The funds came from N23billion Allison Madueke set up for the presidential election of 2015.

According to an EFCC source, Senator Sa’idu Umar Kumo of Gombe State, who was the former national secretary of the All Nigerian peoples Party, (ANPP) signed and collected four hundred and fifty million naira (N450M), campaign fund for the re-election of the former president Goodluck Jonathan.

He admitted that out of the said amount he benefited only two million (N2m), which he promised to pay back.

Chief Joel Madaki, the current Chairman, Peoples Democratic party, (PDP) in Adamawa State and Ambassador Hassan Adamu (Wakili Adamawa) signed and collected the same four hundred and fifty million (N450M) campaign fund for the re-election of the former president Goodluck Jonathan, for Adamawa State, all the transactions were with Fidelity Bank.

Madaki in his statement EFCC, admitted that out of the said amount, it was only five million naira (5m) that passed through his office, which he promised to pay back.

Also, the former acting Governor of Taraba State, Senator Sani Danladi Abubakar, who is the Senator representing Taraba North senatorial District in the National Assembly, was the chair of the sharing committee of four hundred and fifty million (N450M) campaign slush fund for the re-election of ex-president Goodluck Jonathan.

Other members were the former minister of Labour and productivity, Senator Joel Ikenya Danlami and former speaker of the State legislature, Mark Bako Useni.

Investigation by the EFCC, also revealed the role played by the trio in the collection and sharing of the fund.

It also showed that Ikenya and Useni signed and collected the fund from Fidelity Bank on behalf of the State before proceeding to the government House to distribute the fund.

When interrogated, the duo claimed they distributed the money to the sixteen local government areas of the State.

Where did APC got their election campaign fund from?

APC & PDP are two sides of the same coin per se. It like god & the devil, one must be the hero while the other is painted as a vallian.

where did Ameachi & Co got the money they used to fund booari campaign from.
Apc should please stop this babaric press probe and do something meaningful to save the wrecking economy of the nation.

One idiotic narcissist admitted that his own personal share of the 450 million he illegally collected was 2 million naira, another foolish megalomaniac said his own personal share of the 450 million he illegally collected was 5 million naira just for working for the ineffectual buffoon. FFK said he collected only 840 million, Olu Falae said he collected only 100 million naira, Bafarawa collected only 4.3 million for spiritual purposes, Jim Nwobodo said that he collected only 100 million naira. Esther Nemadi said he collected just a little over one billion naira, Olisa Metuh used his own loot to buy a house at Banana Island. AVM Olushola Amosu collected few billions of naira while Alex Badeh too collected some billions of naira all from Nigeria's treasury as approved by the ineffectual buffoon while several graduates are roaming the streets aimlessly because of no job, the power plants have all grown too old to generate meaningful electricity for Nigerians, Nigeria's universities have become glorified secondary schools, the roads are now government means of reducing the population of Nigeria while the hospitals have become another means of cutting down population.

Dear senseless Wailers, please how much did you collect from the loot that is pushing you to die for the drunk ineffectual buffoon and his cantankerous sheppopo grammarian wife together with their looting crew? Just 1000 naira per post? I feel sorry for your children, grandchildren and great grandchildren yet unborn. The Bible has always been right ; The devil has come to steal, to kill and to destroy. Jonathan is the devil, he has killed many in the North East, killed many on Nigeria's bad roads, he has stolen our common wealth, but we shall not allow him and his devilish crew to totally destroy Nigeria.

The fight against corruption will be intensified in the second year of the people's general, more witches will be hunted, special courts shall be established to jail the looters. If you cannot endure the heat in Nigeria, please move to Cotonou quickly. The coming months will be miserable for looters.

Look just how a few individuals chopped a nation's collective wealth like biscuits!

This is really an affront to our values as a country founded on frugality. A lot of past leaders had bastardised that, but GEJ and crew took it to a whole 'nother level.

Then, someone sat somewhere in one comfy corner from whence he was masterminding evil to claim that "my ambition is not worth the blood of any Nigerian".

They'll all meet their comeuppances, soon enough!

I've always mentioned that GEJ is a crook(if you don't know),you need to do your research about him & be well informed ok. From his days as deputy governor to Alamz up to presidency, he has always been in the game of reckless looting.

He is a man with 2 faces, his criminal face is masked by the deceptive cool face thereby playing on the intel of 9ja people, especially the P.D.Pigs. Had it been that he won the re-election, we wouldn't know the extent of damage his corrupt govt did to our dear Nigeria.

PDP was a punishment to forgetful Nigerians!

This is not to exclude the chimp faced OBJ & skinny Yar'adua from d matter, THEY ARE ALL CORRUPT ROBBERS! cool

Everybody is talking about PDP campaign fund, how the huge amounts of money shared was stolen from government, but nobody is talking about how APC campaign was funded by the governors of Lagos state and River and the other APC governors. The probe should be both ways if the government is actually sincere.

For all Nigerians awaiting instant 'factory reset' from Baba, kindly bear with us. Baba is currently retrieving our stolen yam from all the goats who ate it.

Every time I think of what would have become of my beloved nation if Jonathan's administration were to still be in place, I always have goose pimples. If the dude is still in power, NOI would have been publishing exponential increase in our economy and continue to be deceiving us. Thank God ooo

Not saying APC is a party of saints. However, with the current trend, all elected/selected officers will govern with the consciousness that nothing goes on forever. Thus, when another party takes over the mantle of leadership(as they will surely do), they too shall be asked. To give account of their stewardship. In years to come, our communal yam shall be kept in communal barns and not private ones.

Meen... All we have to do is to pray for Nigeria. Its not about party looting funds now. Its about what damages has been done. These monies are life changers. These monies are generation changers,,, its amazing how one man can put money that can help 5 million graduates into his own pocket. All people in Jonathans administration that Worked with the Federal Government needs to be captured and investigated. It appears all of them are criminals.

Exactly, if stolen funds can be linked to their campaign, then it should be investigated. Now that we have found stolen federal funds diverted to PDP campaigns, it must be investigated

Government money is government money, whether federal or state. since they have chosen to tow the path in their corruption fight i.e tracing and investigating PDP's source of funding for the las election, they should also investigate the source of the campaign funds used by APC.
