The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Lagos Zonal office, on Monday, July 30, 2018, arraigned three officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, before Justice Muslim Hassan of the Federal High Court sitting in Ikoyi, Lagos. they were arraigned on an eight-count charge bordering on conspiracy, diversion of public funds and money laundering to the tune of N179, 800,000.00 (One Hundred and Seventy-nine Million, Eight Hundred Thousand Naira).

The defendants - Yemi Akinwunmi, Atiba Dickson and Ogunmodede Oladayo-were alleged to have collected the slush funds from a former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke, in the build-up to the 2015 presidential election.





Investigations revealed that the money was disbursed through Fidelity Bank Plc to some chieftains and members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, as well as some retired staff of INEC in Ogun State in order to compromise the 2015 general elections.

One of the counts reads: “That you, Yemi Akinwunmi, Dickson Atiba and Ogunmodede Oladayo, sometime in March, 2015 in Nigeria within the jurisdiction of this Honourable Court, conspired amongst yourselves to directly take possession of the sum of N179,800,000.00(One Hundred and Seventy- nine Million, Eight hundred Thousand Naira) ,which sum you reasonably ought to have known forms part of the proceeds of fraud and you, thereby, committed an offence contrary to Section 18(a) of the Money Laundering (Prohibition) Act 2011 as amended and punishable under Section 15 (3) and (4) of the same Act.”

The defendants pleaded not guilty to the charge preferred against them.

In view of their pleas, the prosecution counsel, Nnaemeka Omewa, asked the court for a trial date and also prayed that the defendants be remanded in prison custody.

However, counsel to the defendant, Ayo Ogungbesan, moved an oral application for bail on behalf of his clients.

In refusing the bail application, the judge held that the defence counsel must make a formal application for bail on behalf of his clients.

Consequently, Justice Hassan adjourned the matter to August 6, 2018 for hearing of the bail application and ordered the defendants to be remanded prison custody.

What about those that collected bribe from Fayemi?
*Mai shayi has a PVC.
*Mai barrow has a PVC.
*Mai Debino has a PVC.
*Shoe shiner has a PVC.
*Sugar cane seller has a PVC.
*Bus Drivers/Conductors have PVC
*Motor park Agberos have PVC.

You (a student or a graduate with BSc or MSC holder) with all your education and exposure still don't have PVC.
The worst thing is that you even try to justify why you don't have one "my vote won't count".

For the sake of those who paid your school fees & fed you through school, please don't make all your education/exposure useless with statements like that.

If votes don't count, politicians won't bribe/pay people to vote them.

Go and get your PVC!!!

Pls rebroadcast to those who think they are wise to not have PVCs

BUHARI’s administration needs to empower the EFCC by making them independent and also setting up a special court for EFCC cases.

All forms Election fraud including buying and selling of votes should be made a treasonable offense.

No country can flourish if the voice of the people (through vote) cannot be heard.

If Buhari and his administration can accomplish these very minor things before election, he has my vote!!!!

Another useless concoction to distract from Siege in Benue and to impeach Ortom.. Afonjas will do anything even accept what they didn't do to bring SE and SS down. Wicked things. These people have vowed to bring this woman down. EFCC, she has told you invite her to court, you are running. All you do is try her in the media and cash and bail courts. Today 900 billion, yesterday 4.9 billion dollars, last yr 78.9654 billion pounds. Tomorrow 42.8765 billion euros. Nigerians have not seen a dime of this money.

You should be more concerned about the names of the fraudulent individuals... They are all coneheads. The abysmal state of our political strata has been the doings of coneheads they have plugged this country into irredeemable state. But when they talk of people that should be punished for corruption you will see them pointing accusing finger on others and presenting themselves as saints.
