In a statement released by the EFCC;


The sokoto Zonal office of the EFCC , jade arrested two Chinese; Mr. Meng Wei Kun and Mr. Xu Koi for offering a sum of N50,000,000 as bribe to its Zonal head , Mr. Abdullahi Lawal.

The suspects were arrested on Monday , May 11 ,2020 in Sokoto. The bribe was allegedly offered in a desperate bid to compromise ongoing investigations of a construction company , China Zhonghao Nig. Ltd, handling contracts awarded by the Zamfara State Government in the sum of N50,000,000,000,00 (fifty Billion Naira ) between 2012 to 2019.
The zonal office of the commission is investigating the construction company , in connection with the execution of contracts for the construction of township roads in Gummi, Bakkuyun, Anka and Nassarawa towns of Zamfara state ;
And also the construction of one hundred and sixty eight (168) solar - powered boreholes in the 14 local government areas of the state .
Alarmed by the constituency and professionalism of investigation being conducted , the company reached out to Lawal with an offer of N100,000,000 (one hundred million naira ) as bribe to “bury” the matter .
In a grand design to trap the corrupt officials, Lawal played along. On Monday , two representatives of the company Meng Wei Kun and Xu Kuoi offered him cash totally fifty million naira in their office along airport road , Sokoto. The cask was offered as a first installment.
The suspects were promptly arrested with the cash as an evidence. Investigation of the construction company was informed by an intelligence on alleged conspiracy; misappropriation of public funds; embezzlement; official corruption; abuse of office , stealing and money laundering obtained against the Zamfara state government through inflated and incompleted contracts awarded to the company.
Investigations have so far revealed that China Zounghao Ltd has received payments of over N41,000,000,000,00 (Forty One Biion Naira ) from the Zamfara state government, out of which about N16,000,000,000.00 ( sixteen billion Naira ) equivalent to over $53,000,000.00 ( Fifty Three million US Dollars ) was allegedly diverted and traced to some bureau de change operators.
The suspect would soon be charged to court.

You see, these Chinese are actually the definition of the term "morally bankrupt". They do not have any good intentions for the African continent. And the sad part is that they have succeeded in buying many African leaders, so they'll always get away with their crimes.
