The suspended acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ibrahim Magu, received over N1 billion bribes through Pastor Emmanuel Omale and a BDC operator, Ahmed Ibrahim Shanono, a preliminary report of the presidential panel investigating Magu has disclosed.
The preliminary report accused Magu of using, “Pastor Emmanuel Omale (who openly referred to the suspended Ag. Chairman as a member of his church and his spiritual son during proceedings before the Commission) and, a Bureau D’ Change (BDC) operator named Ahmed Ibrahim Shanono as conduits for bribery collection.”
“A careful assessment of some of Shanono’s over 150 bank accounts and that of Omale and his Divine Hand of God Prophetic Ministry Church revealed that various sums of money in both local and foreign currencies (dollar) were deposited by persons this Commission uncovered as being investigated by the EFCC,” the report said.
The suspended acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ibrahim Magu, received over N1 billion bribes through Pastor Emmanuel Omale and a BDC operator, Ahmed Ibrahim Shanono, a preliminary report of the presidential panel investigating Magu has disclosed.
Justice Ayo Salami, Chairman of the presidential panel investigating Ibrahim Magu for corruption and insubordination.
The bribes, according to the panel, were paid by persons being investigated for corruption by the anti-graft agency.
The preliminary report accused Magu of using, “Pastor Emmanuel Omale (who openly referred to the suspended Ag. Chairman as a member of his church and his spiritual son during proceedings before the Commission) and, a Bureau D’ Change (BDC) operator named Ahmed Ibrahim Shanono as conduits for bribery collection.
The Salami panel said Pastor Omale, through his church, also received N1.3 million from a company being investigated for alleged link to EFCC’s N1.5 billion money laundering case against a former Plateau State Governor, Joshua Dariye.
The company had testified before the EFCC, in respect of a case involving the former Plateau State Governor, Joshua Dariye who was then being investigated for laundering about one billion five hundred million naira (N1,500,000,000.00).”
Pastor Omale, according to the Salami panel, also received N10 million from a Bureau de Change operator, 7×7 BDC Limited, through his Church’s Ecobank account.

Once again reacting,an abuja lawyer and activist, samuel ihensekhien jnr, quoting him:
you can recall i sometime gave a press interview on this subject matter, d tirade of reactions was not pleasing and was fearfull,so am constrained now to say little on this issue now.though i recognise the presumption of innocence under section 36 of the constitution of federal republic of nigeria 1999,as amended in 2011 for any accused person and for like prophet omale in this case.However if all this allegations as alleged has any iota of shred of evidentail truth, then is bad for the christendom and for us who belief that christainity is all about good conduct/intergrity.
moreso at this point, the agf should look beyond and prosecute all persons accordingly involved in this bribery allegations,he concluded.
