No shaking, we still love him. Looters and your agents of hatred, your nemesis is back Hale, Hearty and Alive. Fayose should be bold enough and explain to his people how he manage get over N4b in his account, son's account and some of his cronies accounts. PDP ( people devilish party) should stop wailing and wait till 2019 when they will change the change (in their dreams) Anyway, my Gallantly Gallant General, while you were away;
(1) PDP, the gang of looters that turned Boko Haram into their ATM, fell apart and thugs have taken over their headquarter.
(2) The tompolo avengers or Niger Delta avengers told a big lie. They said they blew up NNPC oil terminal in Akwa ibom state, Na lie. I think they have ran out of cash so they re now blowing up terminals with their mouths. That's why they wanted EFFC to stop investigating their sponsors and release their sealed account.

What is happening to education in Nigeria?

Do you understand the section you quoted at all?

The ISSUE here is does the EFCC have the power in law to freeze the bank account of a citizen or not without recourse to a Court of law?. The answer in view of Section 34(1) of EFCC Act, is an emphatic"no". If EFCC cannot freeze any citizen's account without recourse to a court of law and section 308 of the Constitution says you cannot take Fayose to court because he is a Governor, does it not simply mean you cannot freeze Fayose's account as a Governor? Note: I'm not a member/supporter of any Political party or politicians, but I am a supporter of the Rule of law. EFCC was created by law and now they are disobedient to the same law that created them and empowers them. There are always procedures to be followed in every legal debacle or situation, but I just don't know why EFCC have suddenly decided to be using military approach to resolve issues. We cannot jettisoned the rule of law while "fighting" corruption because doing so will amount to greater evil and corruption.

There is no evidence that PMB disobeyed court order? You must be a JOKER

If I ask you for evidence, you will probably refer me to Dasuki who was re-arrested by DSS after getting bail for EFCC case.

Una no smart at all.

knightsTempler:
You are freezing Fayose's account knowing you cannot bring him to court in any way and manner? To what end then?

entire Sec 308 of the 1999 Constitution verbatim. The Section provides:

(1) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Constitution, but subject to subsection (2) of this section -

(a) No civil or criminal proceedings shall be instituted or continued against a person to whom this section applies during his period of office;

(b) A person to whom this section applies shall not be arrested or imprisoned during that period either in pursuance of the process of any court or otherwise; and

(c) No process of any court requiring or compelling the appearance of a person to whom this section applies, shall be applied for or issued: Provided that in ascertaining whether any period of limitation has expired for the purposes of any proceedings against a person to whom this section applies, no account shall be taken of his period of office.

(2) The provisions of subsection (1) of this section shall not apply to civil proceedings against a person to whom this section applies in his official capacity or to civil or criminal proceedings in which such a person is only a nominal party.

(3) This section applies to a person holding the office of President or Vice-President, Governor or Deputy Governor; and the reference in this section to "period of office" is a reference to the period during which the person holding such office is required to perform the functions of the office.

Where any government agency disobey an order of court, the beneficiary of the order has a duty to commit that party for contempt. There are no contempt papers of Dasuki or the one filed for him by those folks if an order of Court was disobeyed.

Don't mind Knight.

As if the EFCC itself does not have a formidable legal team that can analyse and comprehend that section of the law. Fayose isn't being persecuted yet. They only placed hold on the account because it is a vital evidence of the persecution that he will face after his tenure as governor lapses...

Kanu is standing trial for Treason and it is not ordinarily bailable. With his I love Biafra hand band a bail application will surely fail. Such antics may explain why his co-accused went solo in his defence.

Wat is their proof that his account was use for lodgement of stolen funds?

linusbnn:

Kanu was granted bail on a charge for illegal entry to the country and possession of some illegal equipment. While perfecting his bail conditions, he was charged for treasonable felony for which no court has granted him bail for.

Has the govt refused to obey any order?

Pavarottii:

I think if he is neat on this he should just publish the deposit papers or alert to close the mouth of the suffer head EFCC. Otherwise his own pooo is on the way to the fan.

You should explain if institution of criminal proceedings against a person is the same as freezing of account used for money laundering.

I hope [b]linusbnn [/b]is clear now. So endeavor to propagate the message! Tell other IPOD[B?].

SaharaReporters has exclusively obtained the sponsor-list of the employees that were illegally hired at the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS).


The list—which includes some of Nigeria’s most prominent political figures—was released to SaharaReporters following its June 15 report exposing the Executive Chairman of FIRS, Babatunde Fowler, as overseeing the recruitment exercise in violation of Nigerian laws and in further harm to President Muhammadu Buhari’s anti-corruption initiative.

The list of sponsors includes aides of President Buhari, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, political operatives of the All Progressives Congress (APC), federal legislators, the Federal Character Commission (FCC), as well as top officials of FIRS itself. Also on the list are aides of the traditional ruler of Lagos, former President Shehu Shagari, and former Head of State Yakubu Gowon. That broad span demonstrates the depth and magnitude of the illegal employment menace in the country.

As in the case of the illegal hires of the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Mr. Godwin Emefiele, which was exposed by SaharaReporters three months ago, Mr. Fowler illegally recruited no fewer than 349 new FIRS staff members by deliberately ignoring existing Nigerian regulations, laws, and guidelines for public jobs.

According to the list, Mr. Fowler himself sponsored the highest number of illegal hires, with at least 89 recruits being attributed to him. As the corruption spread in the service, the Special Advisor to Mr. Fowler sponsored no fewer than eight illegal hires, while the Coordinating Directors of the Support Services Group, the Domestic Tax Group, and the Compliance and Standards Group (CSG) also took turns.

Sources speaking to SaharaReporters revealed that two hires—Rasheeda Seghosime and Danjuma Seghosime—are the children of FIRS CSG Coordinating Director Queensley Seghosime.

In a practice that parallels the gerrymandering and manipulation in the illegal CBN hires, the Seghosime siblings are curiously listed as being from two different States: Rasheeda listed under Jigawa State, and Danjuma under Delta State.

Another powerful political figure who repeatedly sponsored candidates is Senator Owan Enoh, (Cross River Central). The list shows Mr. Enoh as having sponsored no fewer than 60 illegal hires. Another lawmaker, Babangida Ibrahim, who represents Katsina State in the House of Representatives, also appears to have sponsored no fewer than 10 people.

Sources with knowledge of the illegal hiring practices at the FIRS revealed to SaharaReporters that Mr. Enoh and Mr. Ibrahim, both of whom are the Chairmen on the Senate and House Finance Committees, worked with Mr. Fowler to distribute the public job spots to members of those committees.

This source explained that Mr. Enoh and Mr. Babangida may not even know all the names attributed to them as sponsors because they were intermediaries between Mr. Fowler at FIRS and the Finance Committee members in the Senate and House.

Neither Mr. Enoh or Mr. Ibrahim returned SaharaReporters calls when our correspondent sought comment on these developments.

No fewer than 35 illegal hires were sponsored by the “VP”, according to the sponsor list and FIRS sources speaking with our correspondent. However, according to one source, “I do not know whether these people were sponsored by the Vice President himself or people in his office.”

SaharaReporters spoke to Mr. Osinbajo’s spokesman Laolu Akande, who promised to respond to our inquiries on Friday but did not do so throughout the weekend.

The Secretary of the Government of the Federation, Babachir David Lawal, is listed as having sponsored no fewer than 27 illegal FIRS hires and was described as having enjoyed a “hands-on” role in selecting all hires.

A source at FIRS told SaharaReporters that, unlike many of the recruits sponsored by Mr. Enoh, SGF Lawal knew many of those he sponsored and was instrumental in selecting them to fill those spots. This source also added that Mr. Lawal was supposed to investigate allegations that FIRS was hiring people illegally as far back as April, but “simply ignored the issue.” It was also learned that at least 4 of the 27 illegal hires Mr. Lawal sponsored came from his wife.

Mr. Lawal told SaharaReporters by text and email that he was categorically certain that he had no role in the illegal hires and that reports linking him were false.

President Buhari’s Senior Special Advisers to the National Assembly, Kawu Sumaila and Ita Enang, are also listed as sponsors in the FIRS hires. Mr. Sumaila, SSA to the House of Representatives, sponsored five job slots; Mr. Enang, eight. Sources explained that Mr. Fowler provided these slots to Mr. Sumaila and Mr. Enang as a gesture of good faith concerning future requests.

Sources explained the keywords used to convey who was sponsoring which illegal candidate:

· CD meant Coordinating Director in various FIRS groups

· EC stood for Executive Chairman, meaning Mr. Fowler;

· DG BPSR meant Joe Abah, the Director General of the Bureau of Public Service Reforms;

· FCC stood for the Federal Character Commission, the Commissioners of which received job slots to distribute in exchange for ignoring the fact that FIRS was not publicly advertising the jobs.


Sahara Reporters Media
SaharaReporters sources could not confirm the code words “Baba” or “Mama”, which sponsored at least 20 and 10 jobs respectively, but curiously a duplicate name sponsored by “Mama” was also listed as being sponsored by “Small Villa.” It is believed that the code names were referring to President Muhammadu Buhari, who is widely called Baba, while "Mama" might be his wife, Hajia Aisha Buhari. Our sources could not confirm to whom or what “Small Villa” represented, either.

As in the case of CBN Governor Emiefiele, sour sources explained to that Mr. Fowler was the mastermind for this monumental illegl employment scheme as a way for him to maintain control of FIRS even if he got sacked by President Buhari.

“FIRS not only has a massive budget but if Tunde were to leave he would still be able to influence the FIRS,” one source explained.

He added: “Tunde would be able to peddle influence and buy favors from Nigerian companies to give them assistance manipulating FIRS” after he leaves.

Sources from the FIRS also explained to our correspondent that most of these illegal hires were relatives or friends of the sponsors but that some job slots were sold for money.

Other names which are listed as having sponsored some of the illegal FIRS jobs are the Attorney General to the Federation, Abubakar Malami; Chief Pius Akinyelure; Deputy Senate President Ike Ekweremadu; former Head of State General Yakubu Gowon; the Head of Service, Winifred Ekanem Oyo-Ita; the former FIRS Executive Chairman Ifueko Omoigui-Okauru; Minister of Information Lai Mohammed; the Minister of State for Planning Zainab Ahmed; the Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu; former FIRS boss Alhaji Kabir Mashi; and APC Deputy Publicity Secretary Timi Frank.

According to SaharaReporters’ investigation, six of the new recruits are of the position of deputy director, while 10 are assistant directors. Thirty-four others are of the rank of deputy manager, while the rest are made up of senior managers, managers, assistant managers and officers.

The full list of sponsors and illegal hires can be viewed below:

When will it occur to you guys that Buhari and his Puppet EFCC are using corruption stories to keep Nigerians too busy to see their carelessness and ineptitude.I Jonathan's era there was corruption, and insurgency in the north east but in Buhari's tenure we have had gross inflation at double digit % even the insurgency is now even worse with the fulani herds men every and yet he claims to have silenced boko haram the insurgency has even spread to the south.He is not even smart enough to handle Niger Delta Avengers He thinks everything can be done with military power.The worst is that he is not responsible enough to take responsibility for the country He is still blaming PDP and keeps working hard to make look worse than they already look just to cover up.How much did Obasanjo meet in the treasury in 1999 3.4 billion dollars in forex reserve compared to the 30billion dollars GEJ left in forex reserve and the 2billion dollars in sovereign wealth fund.And he still managed to make people blame GEJ.Please beloved open your eyes beyond party fanaticism and love 4 a politician so u can see beyond propaganda 4 it is deadly when the the masses think just the way our leaders want them to think.
Long live Our President
Long live the Federal Republic.

pls N landers ,I'm still learning how to communicate via internet, but let me say that whoever opposes the stands of the President is not doing himself good, as well as the entire nation,unless such a person has a criminal mind. Now have you considered that Gov Ayo was among the state governors that collected the bailout funds,but recently the worker's in his state staged a demonstration over their unpaid salaries.pls think about that, and that of others who helped to syphone our treasury, before jumping into conclusion that PMB is a tyrant. thanks.
