The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has denied planning to plant foreign currencies at the home of former governor of Lagos State, Akinwunmi Ambode.

The anti-graft agency’s operatives stormed Mr Ambode’s residence in his hometown of Epe on Tuesday morning following the freezing of the sum of N9.9 billion allegedly linked to him, Igbere TV reports.

They were soon greeted by angry protesters who prevented them from coming out of their vehicles.

In a statement on Tuesday by EFCC Head of Media and Publicity, Wilson Uwujaren, the commission said it obtained a valid warrant to search Ambode’s residence.

It said that its operatives were attacked and vehicle vandalised.

“The Commission had obtained valid warrant to conduct search on Ambode’s residences in Park View, Ikoyi and country home in Epe, as part of ongoing investigation of alleged malfeasance,” the statement began.

“However, the Commission’s operatives were attacked and prevented from executing the search warrant in Epe by irate youths who injured three officers and damaged EFCC official vehicle.

“The attack was totally unprovoked as the Commission’s operatives were civic and did not molest anybody.

“The Commission therefore frowns at the attempt to manipulate the video of the search to create the wrong impression that officers of the agency molested residents at the Epe home of the governor.

“It is also not true that the search, was an attempt to plant foreign currencies in the home of the former governor.”

Ambode has called for calm after the botched search at his Epe residence.

From "we didn't go to Ambode's house" to "an attempt to manipulate the video" cos they were caught in the act.....

Sad that people Blocked efcc FROM doing their job

Now, I don't support Tinubu, Buhari, et al. Infact, I wish APC and PDP leaders were in EFCC clutches. But the thing is, let us start from somewhere.

There are far too many corrupt people walking free today, because the minute EFCC moves in to investigate, people , especially those whose interests EFCC is acting in, start shouting that they are being persecuted.

So let EFCC investigate Ambode. Let's forget about this persecution thing. Because it is a clever trick used many times by politicans to escape prosecution.

Look at this people, were we expecting you to agree to that claim?

gud day, pls i seriously need a job, i am a graduate of accounting (hnd) 07037799108

Truth is always the first casualty in this circumstance. Does it make sense that EFCC will plant foreign currency in order to make the honorable governor guilty? His lawyers are overplaying their hands if I may say.

Hmmm... They denied going to his house until when images and videos surfaced, now they are denying this.

Wetin Musa no go see for gate?

Will efcc accept wrong doing before?

Accept wrong doing is alien to Nigeria govt the present administration is the worst. Buhari govt has never till date accept any wrong doing so if their boys acted in likewise manner it's not new pls.

Did you read the story the lawyers gave? What was in the blue bag and why didn't they allow the lawyer look at it?

Even a liar will not accept that he or she is a liar.

In 2009 , Delta people blacked EFCC from arresting James Ibori.

He was being persecuted , you know.

Several years later, they welcomed him back.

And Delta state is still heavily poor and broke.

So, if you want to attack me, sorry. I'm tired of hearing the 'They are persecuting me because I did this or that' excuse. APC or PDP...let's start from somewhere. Because people are suffering because of these politicans.

Modified....And whatever meme you post...I still stand by my post. All polticans must be investigated for corruption. And if it starts from here thanks.

Good afternoon.

Shei they first deny?
See what this govt parastatals how reduced themselves to. First they deny then they accept after video evidence

e pain dem

Who we go believe now?
Lawyers said EFCC
conducted a search
and EFCC are saying they
were prevented. But
Lawyers can lie shaoo.
Believe them at your own
perils. The other day Falana
told us that that Elzakyzaky one eye
was blind already and that he was
a living vegetable. This turned out to falsehood
The man was actually living in luxury to the extent that he preferred life in Buhari 's gulag than injections and drips in lndia.

Lol

EFCC's ranting doesn't seems to add up, what's the ado all about? They purportedly traced the sum of 9.9b to a Man's account he denied ownership of the account, instead of using all the instrument of state at their disposal to nail him they instead resort to propaganda, this kind of quack investigation will erase whatever credibility is left with the organisation..

This your let's start from somewhere is why we have bad leadership in Nigeria. Tell me a trend that has started in Nigeria and was later changed? Why can't we start well ones and for all in what we do in Nigeria.

So we should just let Ambode go because heis being persecuted...

The same way we have been letting a long list of polticans go because they are being persecuted....eh?

OK....let's not prosecute any corrupt person. Let us let all of them go. And please don't come complaining to me of bad governance and looters when those people you let go come and steal your patrimony and build their mansions and leave the rest of us broke.
