Abia Facts Newspaper just gathered that Abia state Accountant General Sir Gabriel Onyendilefu was arrested close to Jerobi Hotel in Umuahia, Abia state by EFCC agents. He is currently in custody of EFCC, who are investigating series of alleged financial misappropriation during the tenure of Senator T. A Orji as governor of Abia State.
The Accountant General who was due retirement after serving for 8 years under former governor T. A Orji, got extra 2 years extension by the then governor now senator before he left office.
Abia Facts Newspaper learnt that the extension was strategic with the focus of covering all alleged financial misdeeds of the past administration.
Other top civil servants that enjoyed the strategic extension includes; Mr. R.K Madu who is the Director of Finance Abia State Government House, Chief Ukwachukwu Agomuoh former Permanent Secretary Abia State Government House, now Permanent Secretary Ministry of Health and Dame Chimechefulam Nwoke the Permanent Secretary Ministry of Environment.
The extension which was backed up by an amendment in Abia state Civil Service rules was moved by Hon. John Pedro in the last Abia State House of Assembly and adducted before the expiration of the former governor’s tenure now Senate T. A Orji.




Abia Facts Newspaper also learnt that the above mentioned civil servants were all due retirement on a Friday and the amendment was done on a Thursday with immediate extension letters served them.
Our source informed us that the aim of the extension is to protect alleged financial recklessness of the past government and also to work as informants in Gov. Okezie Ikpeazu’s led government.
Sir. Gabriel Onyendiefe is the owner of Jerobi Hotel in Umuahia, one of the biggest hotels in Umuahia town. He has been fighting hard to cover this fact.

Of recent we have been hearing a lot from EFCC..... well nice job....but I want the agency as much as possible to be impartial in their activities.

Time to protest.

Is it true? Or are they jocking?
So ta orji can equally be probed?
No matter how late, I now have a sigh of relieve.
If they are seriouse mind you abia will prosper from now.
To God be the glory.

Thats good if he embezzles public funds
