Emeka Ihedioha Cannot Run From Justice by Comroguji(m): 8:04pm On Oct 11, 2022
IMO COALITION FOR JUSTICES, PEACE & TRUE DEMOCRACY.

EMEKA IHEDIOHA CANNOT RUN FROM JUSTICE .


It is has come to our attention the attitude of EMEKA IHEDIOHA in trying to delay and deny justice against the probe of his illegitimate administration of 8 months.

It will be recalled that the Imo state government had approved the request of the Auditor General for Local Governments and Chieftaincy Affairs, to take all necessary steps to recover the sum of N19.63Billion siphoned from the State-Local Government Joint Accounts Allocation Committee (JAAC), through the Bureau for Local government and Chieftaincy Affairs (BLGCA), by the sacked government of Emeka Ihedioha, in just 8 months in office.

“The staggering amount was siphoned for undisclosed purposes.”
The State commissioner for Information and Strategy, stated the N19.63Billion misappropriated Funds was discovered during a routine Audit of the Accounts and Records of JAAC with the Bureau for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs by the Local Government Auditor General for the fiscal year ended 31/12/2019.

The Government’s action was in line with the NEW IMO Agenda to entrench a resilient and transparent Public Service and restore financial discipline and Rule of law premised on extant laws pertaining to the Custody, Management and Appropriation of Public Funds.

J.A.A.C. was set up by law and disbursements of L.G.As Funds is guided by Model Financial Memorandum and other extant laws on custody, and management and audit of the said entity.

We regret that the money was illegally withdrawn from J.A.A.C. account without any Memorandum of Understanding (M.O.U) or Stores Receipt Vouchers  (S.R.V.)  or  Stores  Issue Vouchers (S.I.V.) in accordance with extant laws.

We hold that Some of the agents used by Ihedioha’s government to siphon the billions of Naira include; The Managing Director of Wall House Ltd., a crony of the sacked governor, who was paid N1.215 billion for supply of construction equipment without any document, which he didn’t supply. There was also an unconscionable mandatory withdrawal of N2.405 Billion by the Bureau for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs (BLGCA).

Other payment of N9.378Billion to Local Government councils for an undisclosed purpose. Also Mr Anyama and co. received N245 Million for no disclosed purpose.

We uncovered also Other fictitious and fraudulent withdrawals which include compulsory returns or kick- backs from Local Government Councils to the BLGCA to the tune of N2.404Billion. This was deducted from the allocated funds of the L.G.A.’s.
Payment of N245Million to Raphael Anyama & Co. (Chartered Accountants) from Rural Roads Account without payment vouchers or approvals.

Payments made through the banks without payment vouchers or evidence of expenditure to the tune of N3.332Billion.

Most Curious phenomenon was where N25Million was paid  twice to the Principal Secretary to the governor in December 2019 as security vote.


Emeka IHEDIOHA should then focus on how to face the dance of the law .

We recall that his administration first started with the construction of 27 LGAs Stadia which gulped billions of naira only to lay their foundations and nothing else was heard about it. It is interesting to note with dismay that his immediate predecessor littered the state with 27 non functional general hospitals in the state, it became obvious that Emeka Ihedioha is no different when it comes to public funds.

This same Emeka Ihedioha has been indicted by the state government over the missing N19.63bn of LG funds which he cannot account for and has since approached the court with fictitious claims.

We are equally aware of his purported percentage share every month from LG accounts, the money he took to procure construction equipments for every LG which he didn’t buy till he left office, the bullet proof car he bought with state funds and converted to personal use amongst many other things.

Nobody is above the law and Emeka Ihedioha should not be treated as a sacred cow over his criminal acts and looting of the state treasury. A man who openly disparaged the highest court in the country over his illegal stay as the Governor of Imo State has no business calling on the court to squash his criminal indictments.

We call on the state government not to be cowed by the antics of Emeka Ihedioaha and as a matter of urgency collaborate with security agencies to immediately arrest him anywhere he is found and prosecute him as well as ensure that all he stole from the state is well accounted for and gotten back.

To this end, IMO COALITION FOR JUSTICES, PEACE & TRUE DEMOCRACY , being a law-abiding citizens of Nigeria calls on behalf of ndi Imo to continue with the probe of Emeka Ihedioha and to ensure justice is delivered.

Look at this imp , from writing lies from the pit of hell and propaganda, to telling us how Emeka ihedioha called igbos saboteurs in Ghana, it has never done to you that all this trash you been dishing out has never had any effect in both imo state and Igbo land on the whole, no amount of lies and propaganda from your pay masters heavily financed by Hope Uzodinma can change the fact that he will never rule IMO two terms, no supreme court can play such jamboree again, his case is like that of Oyetola of Osun state, who came in power too through judicial gigiri pokiri, I want to assure you that write rubbish from now till the next 200 years, Emeka ihedioha will give anybody contesting with him the Governorship election of imo state the bed level, I challenge you, no amount lies and propaganda from your type can reduce a point of trust imo people have for Emeka, he has been tested and he didn't fail, what Nigerians need Now is a trusted person not political Party, Emeka ihedioha proved himself within the 7 months he stayed in office, wonder how many years it will take another imo Governor to break that record massive infrastructure and on going road construction in all the 27 local government areas of imo state simultaneously before Hope came to stop them, that is Hope's Waterloo. So you can continue to write your eyesore, it will have no effect, imo people are wise and intelligent, the era of propaganda is gone
