Armsgate: EFCC Tenders Evidence, Says Dokpesi Received N2.1bn from ONSA

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on Thursday, May 25, 2017 tendered in evidence details of correspondences between DAAR Investment and Holdings Limited, Office of the National Security Adviser, ONSA and Bureau of Public Procurement, BPP, to the effect that Raymond Dokpesi received money to the tune of N2.1billion from ONSA.

The documents were tendered by the anti-graft agency through Azonabor, who testified as PW5 in the trial of Dokpesi and DAAR Investment and Holdings Limited, who are facing a six-count charge relating to the sum of N2.1billion allegedly received from the ONSA between October 2014 and March, 2015 for the Peoples Democratic Party’s presidential media campaign.

Azonabor, an operative of EFCC, while being led in evidence by counsel to the EFCC, Rotimi Jacobs, SAN, informed the court of details of several letters originating from the EFCC in the course of investigating the alleged diversion of billions of naira meant for the purchase of arms by the ONSA under Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd).
...
“In the course of our investigation, it was realized that a huge sum of money was paid into the account of DAAR Investment and Holdings Limited by ONSA. “A letter was written from EFCC to ONSA requesting for details of the said payment. Consequently, ONSA replied that series of payments were made to DAAR Investment and Holdings Limited to the tune of N2.1billion.
...
The three letters were tendered and admitted as Exhibit D1, D2 and D3.
...
Jacobs drew attention of the court to Exhibit D1, noting that within a period of three months (that is, between January and March 2015), the sum of N2billion was paid to DAAR Investment and Holdings Limited and a letter of invite was placed to DAAR Investment and Holdings Limited who replied via its solicitor, Mike Ozekhome, SAN, clearly denying any business transactions with the ONSA.
...
Justice Tsoho adjourned to July 6 - 7, 2017 for the continuation of trial.

When will this case just end and everyone involved heads to maximum prison

Stop making your inconclusive investigation a media junk.
If you have hard evidence, use it properly and the court will find him guilty else please keep quiet.
It now looks as if APC wants to kill opposition media

Some idiots who have been programmed to behave idiotic will come here now and say AIT was paid for a job.

But you all should answer this - What sort of advert could ONSA have paid AIT for or what sort of business and when and where was the said business carried out.

Why was money meant for arms used for this purpose? Or is AIT now into selling of arms?

The last i heard was their prosecuting witness confirmed that he received the money through the right channels and there are documents to that effect. Let's wait and see how these plays out. What is happening with Obanikoro's case, what about the Yakubu and their likes ? Make we dey watch sha

You lot must defend corruption. Even when it doesn't make any sense.

Has Dokpesi denied receiving the said amount? If he has not of which he has only said he was paid for a job done, then what sort of job could ONSA have engaged a TV station to carry out with as much as 2.1bn? And when and where was the job done/delivered?

You lot should please at least use your brains and stop supporting these thieves.

Yawa don gas

Tinubu will get his man for running that documentary on AIT but Dokpesi himself na father before father I must say.

Are investigations carried out in the media?
Do we now try people in the media?
Are there no lawyers in the court to ask these questions you are asking?

Defender of good governance- once you do it the wrong way bro you are corrupt.
