Joblessness is a chronic disease

Foolish cry!!! Misplaced priorities. With everything going on in this country, you add more nonsense. Why didn’t the lot of you come out against the hike in prices? Staged cows

Atiku Don enter one chance

All of una don mad for that protest ground,for this country everybody nah barawo

This is not enough, the sponsor of the protest should also mobilise for the arrest of Barrister Festus Keyamo who is a serving minister in Buhari administration for taking pictures with his childhood friend Jerry Ikoghowho was arrested for massive fraud by the FBI. Keyamo even confirmed he was his childhood friend and the fraudster also accommodated him at a time but the APC kept mute on this.

hypocritic Nigerians, how many times have protested investigation of bullion vans?

muykem:
I am happy with this. Let there be a thorough investigation. I don't think Dino is innocent even if other people are.

How about Thiefnubuu and hell rufai

Hired protesters. Investigate Atiku and others, what about Daddy Freeze?

This is clearly paid protesters.. they are only delivering a task they are asked to do..

APC should also be investigated cos Atiku was once an APC member and he also influenced buhari's emergence...

Odumakin, Aribisala, Shehu Sani, Remo, FFK, Sahara reporters, Punch tissue paper, vanguard newspaper, This Day, Premium Time, Biafra Igbo, Sun newspaper, PDP and Kola Ologbo Digbolugi for don petition USA, UK, UN, AU, FIFA, UEFA, PSG, HIV, NFA, EU, CAF......

Heyheyhey!!!
APC don dey trow stone again oh... Pointing accusing fingers and trolling PDP is their second mission in life after propaganda

Nonsense peepul

Let yee without sin be the first to caste the stope but nonetheless, this is not a valid reason not to prosecute whoever has hand in the backwardness of our dear country irrespective of their political affiliation but the only thing I'm against is the victimization of the opposition by this current administration.

As a matter of fact whatever my stand maybe, these people don't give a damn about me, so i would pretend not to give a damn about them too. OGUN KILL ALL OF UNA

APC miscreants.

With the myriads of issues staring us in the face coupled with the poor management of covid-19 which is killing people in large number in the communities including notable politicians and the insecurity which has remained unabated....they just want to distract us with this nonsense and I trust the mumus to approve this as usual.

Hushpuppi: Protest Rocks US Embassy As Nigerians Demand Forensic Investigation Of Atiku, Timi Frank Over Links With Alleged Cyber-Fraudster

Some Nigerians, on Monday, protested to the US Embassy, Abuja, demanding a forensic investigation over ex-Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, associate, Timi Frank and some Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftains link to alleged fraudster, Raymond Abbas Igbalode, popularly known as Hushpuppi.

The group, under the aegis of Concerned Citizens Forum (CCF), numbering over 500 persons submitted a letter to the US Ambassador and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, urging a thorough probe of Hushpuppi’s political allies who are all in the PDP.

Recall that the All Progressives Congress (APC) had alleged “criminal conspiracy linking the top echelon of the opposition” to Hushpuppi.

According to the APC, ” the PDP leadership turned Dubai into their ‘Strategic’ meeting place ahead of the 2019 general elections.

In its petition signed by Comrade Adamu Kabir Matazu, the peaceful protesters called on the US, through relevant agencies, to investigate the connection between these high profile Nigerians and Hushpuppi so as to recover fully the proceeds of crime or make it difficult for such monies to be laundered in Nigeria.

The group reasoned that Atiku’s frequent reliance on cyber experts and reference to internet server and frequent trips to Dubai prior to last year’s elections may not be unconnected to Hushpuppi.


It, therefore, urged the US to go after Atiku, Timi Frank and other PDP stalwarts who through their actions and associations with the fraudster may have helped to launder the proceeds of crime.

Read full statement below:

Permit us to congratulate you on your appointment as the United States ambassador to Nigeria by US President, Donald Trump, and for the successful presentation of your credentials to Nigeria’s President, Muhammadu Buhari in December, 2019.

We are a group of eminent Nigerians with keen interest in building a positive image for our country through the promotion of credible best practices and exposure of acts capable of soiling the image of Nigeria.

In the light of the fact that we share common ideals of accountability and good citizenship, we wish to bring to your attention, certain facts that will further build citizens’ capacity for best practices.

Dear Ambassador, we are sure you are aware that within the period you arrived Nigeria and shortly before that, some of our citizens have been arrested for alleged criminal activities like cyber crime, internet fraud and money laundering in many countries in Europe, Asia and America including your country, the United States.

The biggest and most recent of such, is the arrest of Mr. Raymond Abbas Igbalode, the Instagram celebrity, also known as Hushpuppi and 12 others who are alleged to have scammed over 1.9 million people across the globe of over $35 million.

We commend the international community for the vigilance which has led to the arrest of these persons whose activities have deprived many of their legitimate sources of livelihood and brought shame to Nigeria.

Dear Ambassador, following the extradition of Hushpuppi and his associates to the US to undergo trial for alleged cyber fraud, we wish to offer our suggestions on how the investigations would be thorough to achieve the goal of exposing all those suspected to have either aided the fraud or those who have through their actions and associations with the fraudsters, helped to launder the proceeds of crime

This, we believe would ensure that all those involved in the crime are brought to book so as to serve as a deterrent to others.

You will agree with us, dear Ambassador, that all the global instruments on financial crime including FATF, clearly identity several ways in which proceeds from financial crimes can be whitewashed and presented as legit.

Some of these processes include association with politically exposed persons, channeling the resources through existing organisations and partnering with already established businesses.

We wish to inform you that since 2016 when Mr. Igbalode pulled his first heist and leaped into living a luxurious life of opulence, his major channel for laundering the proceeds of his crime have been through open association with notable Nigerian politicians as well as former and serving public officials.

Such meetings are usually presented to the public through videos and other photos of the event which are usually held in posh hotels or other expensive venues around the world on Instagram and other online media.

The aim of such videos and photos, Dear Ambassador, as you are aware, is to further scam the public by presenting such fraudsters and their ill gotten wealth as clean business men with legit income that anybody can do business with.

The photo and video shoots from such events serve as open endorsements of such characters, making it easy for the proceeds of these cyber fraud to be brought into Nigeria and to be accepted by unsuspecting members of the public as normal which further makes it difficult for investigating agencies to track.

We wish to report you, dear Ambassador, that some of the persons who have lent their high profile personalities to cover up for such shady transactions include a former vice president of Nigeria, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, a former senator, Dino Melaye, and a top member of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Mr. Timi Frank and others.

Videos clips of their association with Mr.Igbalode have been posted and reposted on major internet outlets like Facebook, Internet and YouTube for all to see.

We have every reason to suspect that their open association with Mr. Igbalode (Hushpuppi), was not a coincidence as they are trying to make people believe, but was well planned to sell the fraudster to Nigerians as a legitimate businessman who associates with respected and eminent members of the society.

It is in the light of this, dear Ambassador, that we urge you, to use your good office as the representative of the United States Government in Nigeria, to call the attention of the US government of the possibility that the major accomplices of Mr. Igbalode are still roaming about freely in Nigeria.

We call on the US Government to in the bid to help fight cyber crime, money laundering and possible terrorists financing, to draw the attention of the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, FBI, Mr. Christopher A. Wray and the Secretary General of Interpol, Mr. Jürgen Stock to these facts.

We are aware that both the

FBI and Interpol have range of legal authorities that enables them investigate federal crimes and threats to national security, as well as to gather intelligence and assist other law enforcement agencies in countries outside the US.

Hushpuppi is known to have defrauded millions of people across the world and is wanted for fraud crimes in Europe, the United States and Nigeria.

We are aware that Title 28, U.S. Code, Section 533, authorizes the Attorney General of the US, to appoint officials to detect and prosecute crimes against the United States.

The investigation we are asking these agencies to carry out are clearly crimes against the United States as well as other countries and we are aware that the FBI, unlike many domestic intelligence agencies around the world, can investigate crime in other countries, more so as the investigative jurisdiction of the FBI extends to most federal criminal laws in more than 200 areas, including computer crime (cybercrime), embezzlement, money laundering, organized crime (including extortion and racketeering), piracy and hijacking, sabotage, sedition, terrorism (including ecoterrorism).

We are also aware that these agencies have helped in tracking down crimes in other countries.

We also know that the FBI has in the past worked with The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission in Nigeria, to identify and prosecute local partners of international fraudsters and had arrested 281 individuals, including 167 in Nigeria, for their involvement in fraudulent business email compromise (BEC) schemes.

Dear Ambassador you may wish to know that the EFCC in Nigeria, has said that details of Mr. Igbalode’s money laundering transactions involves many high-profile cyber criminals facing trial in Nigeria.

We are happy that EFCC is also eager to engage with the EFCC in tracking victims of Mr. Igbalode’s fraudulent transactions and other fraudsters having direct involvement with him.

We are interested in having these persons investigated because we believe they may have aided in laundering the proceeds of crime by Mr.Igbalode either directly or indirectly, which if established, makes them accomplices in the crime.

Our suspicion is heightened by the frequent visits of these persons to Dubai in the United Arab Emirate, UAE, where Mr. Igbalode was arrested, at the slightest instance, one of which was the celebrated meeting of the associates of the former vice president shortly before the 2019 Nigeria general elections.

Again, we have every reason to suspect that the frequent reliance on cyber experts and reference to internet server by the former vice president and his associates, may not be unconnected with their relationship with these cyber criminals.

We therefore call on the US Government to assist through the relevant agencies to investigate the connection between these high profile Nigerians and the internet fraudster so as to recover fully the proceeds of crime or make it difficult for such monies to be laundered in Nigeria.

Paid protesters.... I do not blame them one bit.
APC are performing the smartest criminal heist ever done by any political party in West Africa.
Economically crumble the working populace and throw bread crumbs of N500 per protesters when they need them to distract Nigerians again.

500 x 20,000 thousand naira equal to 10,000,000 naira.

If you know, you know

Dyke15:
Misplaced priorities*Mtchw...

That one is your opinion.. It is a welcome development for us. Associate of Thieves cannot be gunning for our top job after trying to steal our election in Dubai with the help of the biggest fraudster the world has ever known.. Party of tax collectors and fraudsters must die

How many times have Nigerians been to Aso Rock in Nigeria to protest against Bandits, kidnapping, inflation, hardship and poverty in the land?

abitex577:
Someone is obviously threatened by PDP's revival and repositioning for 2023....

Shut up and better join the protesters How can Atiku suddenly denied that he doesn't know Hushpuppi?

Paid protesters ����

biGwal:
E don happen

Egugun becareful nah express you dey go

Fools

so you want a foreign government to wade into your street politics and mud fight

idiots

Foreign government and international law offices don't recieve petitions they recieve evidence.

is Dubai that Stoopid to be labelling past visitors thieves and collaborators

Nigerian politicians are filled with haters and illetrates

So hushuppy linked PDP with hackers to hack INEC

RTSC:

16 years as vice president?

Lunatic.

The best part of your time would be spent investigating the shambolic 21 years of your apc in Lagos.

Dumbo and dunce would always try to deflect

Go to USembassy at Ikoyi and protest about the trash you talk about in Lagos, rather than seat like stationery object

Sincerely speaking, after reading a few opening comments on this topic, it's safe to unapologetically state that it takes an amneisic, unprincipled mind and stüpidity of gargantuan proportions to be a PDP supporter.
Or how else do you explain attacking people demanding probity from someone who just made an attempt at the highest office in the country?

Even if it's all politics as you all claimed, what if after investigations, Atiku is found to have links of any sort with Hushpuppy? Would you still call it politics?
It's not every issue you guys should turn into an APC vs PDP fight. The fact that the PDP strategy for the last election was code-named "The Dubai Strategy" with pictures of meeting with Hushpuppy during that period, and the subsequent claims of victory on an imaginary "INEC server", when all these are pieced together, I think it's worth the call for investigations.

And for those saying it's all politics, PDP would have done far worse considering how petty issues of little or no significance have been amplified by Kola Olongbodiya, FFK and Reno Omokri to score cheap political points.

We need to look beyond APC and PDP in 2023 if we're to make any progress in this country, but no, some people are bent on revenge rather than progress and will stop at nothing to bring back a party that laid the foundation for all the crisis bedeviling this country.
A new force outside the old establishment is what we need if we're really serious about making progress as a nation

These are the real jobless, lazy APC youths.
