We’ll Declare War!” — Governor Bala Mohammed Blasts EFCC Over Alleged Targeting of Opposition Politicians (Video)

Tension is rising in Nigeria’s political space after Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed, issued a strong warning to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over what he described as the persecution of politicians doesn’t belong to the ruling party.
Speaking in a viral video currently circulating online, the governor warned that there could be serious political consequences if the anti-graft agency continues what he called selective investigations against opposition figures, especially non-members of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
According to him:
“If this persecution of non-APC members does not stop, we will declare war.”
The statement has sparked heated reactions across social media, with many Nigerians debating whether the EFCC is being used as a political tool or simply carrying out its constitutional duties.
Some commenters support the governor’s stance, claiming opposition leaders are being unfairly targeted, while others insist that anyone found guilty of corruption should face the law regardless of party affiliation.

The U.S. Mission in Nigeria has raised concerns about the recent tribunal ruling regarding the Edo gubernatorial election, claiming that the electoral process was fraught with irregularities.

In a statement shared on the Embassy’s official X account, officials pointed to "serious lapses in the collation process" that have alarmed civil society groups and election observers alike.

Ambassador Mills reiterated his earlier comments from September 24, underlining the necessity of transparency and due process to maintain public confidence in democratic institutions. "The United States reaffirms our commitment to supporting free, fair, transparent, and credible elections in Nigeria," stated the ambassador.

As the appeal process continues, the U.S. Mission is closely monitoring the situation and has urged the judiciary to uphold democratic principles and the rule of law.

Civil society organizations have also voiced their discontent with the September 21 Edo governorship election, accusing the ruling party of electoral fraud in favor of the candidate, Okpebholo.

Asue should have known that there was a precedent

leokid866:
They had been managing salaries payment since Aregbes days based on loans he took....while Oyetola was there he was the one who made a shift from half payments......and he was not owing Salaries....there was backlog on pension payments but thar was on the last year in office with a plan to clear part of it after the elections.....everything was already set and all Adeleke did was just to sign that's why people like you who have no idea what was happening think adeleke just walked in and started throwing money around.....

GEJDHERO:
They are? PIRACY!

Cutezt:
Seems you didn't read the post completely. The NBC was sued alongside Multichoice by SLTV for violating their own sublicencing codes to create a favorable environment for pay tv competition and SLTV won.

I don't know what you are talking about but if sltv shuts down today, I am not at loss at all. Moreover, SLTV has been existing since 2021 and despite all the court battles, they still show Supersport till date.

ShoeGetSize:
Be careful. SLTV is illegal. It is committing the same piracy crime that TSTV was committing before its owners went underground. They're stealing copyrighted content from a licensed operator and by using their platform, you are making yourself an accessory to crime. When NCC and BON eventually comes for SLTV, a lot of people will weep over the money they have thrown away

Judging from the Accountant-general's claim that Edu's instruction to pay the N585.2 million into the project Accountant's private bank account was not followed; meaning, they did not make the payment contrary to rumours flying around the social media; I am tempted to believe the woman is being falsely and unfairly accused by mischief makers.

The initial impression I had was that she personally transferred the money into somebody's private account for fraudulent motive. But I later discovered that she only sent a memo to Accountant-general of the Federation instructing her to make the payment, not into her personal account, nor into private account of any of her family members or friends, but into the account of the project Accountant for the Grants for Vulnerable Groups in the Ministry of Finance. And the memo clearly specified the purpose of the transfer and the beneficiary groups in Akwa Ibom, Cross River, Lagos and Ogun.

While we all know that the law forbids public fund being transferred into a private account, it's important to note that:

1) the money has not even been paid yet (according to the Accountant-general).

2) it's possible she was made to believe that that was the way things are done in the ministry and she could have been misled into sending such instruction to the Accountant-general.

3) after going through the memo she sent to the Accountant-general, I have a feeling that Edu probably had no ulterior motive. She was most likely naive and ignorant of the law and implication of what she was doing.

The investigation should continue to it's logical conclusion. If the money is discovered to have already been paid into the private account both Edu and the Accountant-general and even the project Accountant should be fired and the money recovered. Otherwise, she should be freed.

Somebody once said it that Tinubu and dangote are not in good time again.

princemillla:
Necessary! Anything Benin republic must b corrupt.

Supplied some events items to that countries for their presidential inauguration years back. I paid alot of money to their border police.

I saw lawlessness first hand. Getting back my items was very tideous as the items I supplied on rent was paid for to b purchased.

SmartyPants:
I dont see why he would import at all if not for inefficiencies in the system. The govt has also pledged a certain quantity for him annually so if all goes well importation should be out of the question

GeneralDae:
So why are they receiving crude if it's not about to start? Is it for show off? and why would they spend 19 Billion dollars, only to show off? If the Indians are hoarding information from the Nigerians as said by the post you quoted, then how did the Nigerians there come to the conclusion that it's 2025?

I am sorry for doubting your predicament. I don't live in Nigeria but I am a regular on Nairaland. I just called my Pharmacy in Douala, Cameroon and the price of same drug remains at 4510 francs CFA which equates to 5400 Naira. Cameroon doesn't have a production unit for GSK atsuch the drug is imported too.

Augmentin is a GSK pharmaceutical brand of Amoxicillin that contains c!avulanic acid to fight antibiotic resistance. It is in the WHO list of essential Medicines with generic versions from several pharmaceutical that sell for less than 2000 Naira equivalent in Cameroon. I wonder at what point a cheap, easy to produce, essential medicine like Amoxicillin/Clavulanic acid would cost 57.000

Did you ask for another brand? I think you should lodge a complain with the price control for a proper investigation. This is totally outrageous. The Naira hasn't devaluated to the Zimbabwean dollar

Kazeemabiodun:
which state are you in osun to know that . Nothing will happen

Rootprof:
Mere looking at things from afar if court declare oyetola winner OSUN will BURN cos people loves Adeleke. This I have seen

VinnyBaba:
See this Ignorant and Naive fellow.

The Country is still ruled by the NORTH and will be so, if APC is the Ruling Party.

Shettima and the Aso Rock Cabal are Still as Active as Ever! Dem dey Kampe 🙂

If Tinubu tries any Nonsense in Governance, They will DEALT with him! 😏
Don't Forget that they Control DSS and Nigerian Army!

Greatihex:
we have been here before. These were the exact same excuses everybody was making for Kepa until we signed Mendy and then many people now believed that those shots could be saved.
