An EFCC operative, who would not like to be mentioned, told Vanguard that Bankole has obviously lost his cool after more than seven days in custody.

He said: “The man has lost some of his ‘swag’ after all these days in almost solitary confinement. He appears dejected and frustrated at his condition. Everyone who is accustomed to living lavishly would feel the same way when those niceties are taken away, even if momentarily.”

The operative noted, however, that the former number four man in the polity was not enjoying any preferential treatment from the operatives detailed to guard him, adding: “No; he is treated like any other suspect in our custody, though we make sure that he gets access to his lawyers and other people who matter to the case. Don’t forget that he is being held under orders from the court.”

Those who have visited him say[b] the former speaker is being detained in an underground cell at the EFCC headquarters[/b] with only a mat for him to sleep on.”

What is good for the goose is good for the gander.

Atleast make he taste as mosqito be ma best frnd for night

The EFCC is becoming a big joke. This man will soon walk like every big thieves they've caught in the past.
Its a matter of settling all the operatives involved as well as the judge.

i have been thinking about this also . . . . . . . make dem use one person as a scape goat.

EFCC is just acting another seasoned film,

Another Nollywood block-buster here for us all. enjoi!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He is a common criminal that deserves even an under-water cell. In fact, he should be shut w/out trial. Ole buruku

I feel this will put an end to corruption in Nigeria. Anybody that is guilty should be hanged, Chikena. China and other countries are doing that. All these EFCC stuff is just a drama to appease and entertain the aggrieve public, at the end the culprit is left off the hook.

A federal high court sitting in Abuja presided by Hon. Justice E. S. Chukwu on Wednesday 9th October, 2013 granted leave to federal prosecutors to withdraw charges against Dr Silva Opuala-Charles, former Commissioner for Finance, Bayelsa State and 2 former senior Bayelsa state officials under the government of Chief Timipre Sylva.

On 30th September 2013 John Ainetor Esq leading Folorunsho Adedeji Esq for the prosecution applied for a Notice of Withdrawal of the original suit which was filed by the Federal Government in 2010

The Discharge Order of 9th October 2013 which struck out CHARGE No.FHC/ABJ/CR/55 immediately ordered the discharge of Dr. Silva Opuala-Charles (the former Commissioner of Finance) and his two co-defendants, namely Abbot T Clinton (Director of Treasury) and Ikhobo Anthony Howells (Director of Finance). The court further ordered that all sureties discharged and all property documents released to them forthwith.
