Nigeria Visa Firm Owned By Man On Fraud Charges - BBC by tunene66: 2:56pm On Apr 08, 2020
The owner of the Nigerian government-appointed company which produces visas for people wishing to travel to Nigeria from around the world is facing charges of fraud and money laundering in Nigeria in relation to a different company, the BBC has learnt in a joint investigation with the Premium Times.

There is no suggestion of wrongdoing by the visa-processing company and the allegations have no relation to the management of the visa business.

Mahmood Ahmadu, together with his former company Drexel Tech, was charged by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), on two counts of fraud and three counts of money laundering.

Three others, including former Interior Minister Abba Moro, face charges of fraud and breach of public procurement laws.

All those charged, including Mr Moro and Mr Ahmadu, deny any wrongdoing.

Mr Ahmadu has been highly regarded in Nigeria and was given the Order Of The Niger, a prestigious national award, by President Goodluck Jonathan in 2014

Facts.

I'm still waiting for Buhari to jail one fulani politician accused of corruption. These fulanis have looted this country than any other tribe but Buhari treats them with kid's gloves.

Even without telling you, you should know that the crime he’s standing trial for was committed during the Jonathan administration since he’s been tried alongside Abba Moro, the minister of interior from 2011-2015.

That's not new in Nigeria

The worst aspect is that the Nigerian government is aware of it but nothing will be done about it

They will leave the log in their eyes and remove the speck in the masses eyes

This matter should not die a natural death, what will happen to Mahmood Ahmadu and former Interior Minister Abba Moro

Cause I can assure you that if Mahmood Ahmadu was from the South East now, the government would have addressed it!

You will not hear from Abike Dabiri now undecided I used to have alot of respect for her before but of recent she has been a shadow of herself!!!

These people and the president are rocking the same boat. Birds of the feather...

We can see, therefore, that President Buhari’s anti-corruption fervour is merely self-serving. He regards only his political opponents as having the copyright on corruption. By this token, every allegation of corruption leveled against his friends and financiers must be “baseless.”
https://opinion.premiumtimesng.com/2018/10/23/president-buhari-is-not-against-corruption-by-femi-aribisala/

Yes Corruption during Jonathan's time but the present man being the biggest corrupt hypocrite Nigeria has ever got does not only loves corruption but have long gone ahead to institutionalized & legalized same.

Where is Musiliu Obanikoro, Lawal Babachir, Prof.Yusuf (former Sec.NHIS), Nasiru Danu etc? Gandollar/Bagudu/ Oshiomole among many top APC corrupt fellas are being shielded from probe.What happened to Aisha Buhari's 1.5B unknown donations money that was alleged to be stolen by her ADC? All swept under the carpet.
